| LARGE MODERNIST LANDSCAPE - TEXAS ARTIST- E. LECHLER - 1945 |
| THIS IS A NICE, FRAMED OIL PAINTING ON STRETCHED CANVAS BY TEXAS AND HILL COUNTRY PAINTER, E. LECHLER. THE PAINTING ITSELF IS APRX 16.25" x 24.75", AND SET IN A PAINTED-BLACK WOOD FRAME THAT MAKES THE OVERALL SIZE APRX 19.5" X 28". IT IS SIGNED LOWER RIGHT - E. LECHLER 1945. THE PAINTING IS OF A GROVE OF TREES WITH MOUNTAINS IN THE BACKGROUND AND A STREAM IN THE FOREGROUND. I ACQUIRED THIS WITH OTHER 1930s AND 40s PAINTINGS FROM THE ESTATE OF IRMA FAUST. IRMA FAUST WAS A PROLIFIC PAINTER AND SHE PAINTED IN THE FIELD ALL OVER THE WORLD ALONG WITH HER FRIENDS. THIS PAINTING WAS PART OF HER COLLECTION AND PROBABLY THE WORK OF A PEER. THE WORKMANSHIP OF THIS PAINTING IS WONDERFUL AND THE CONDITION SEEMS VERY GOOD. I DO SEE A SMALL SCRATCH NEAR THE SIGNATURE (SEE PHOTO). THE WHITE AREAS IN THE PHOTOS ARE DUE TO MY FLASH, NOT LOSS OF PAINT. THIS PAINTING WOULD BE A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO A VINTAGE TEXAS PAINTING COLLECTION. WE HAVE OTHER VINTAGE AND ANTIQUE TEXAS PAINTINGS UP FOR AUCTION, SO PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR OTHER LISTINGS ! THANKS FOR LOOKING !!! |
