Beautiful
is this a european painting or an american one? can you tell us anymore about it - like where you got it from or anything?? it looks like a real beaut, but i kind of think it's european - except the signature looks american...??
Hi ho2cultcha I got it from the rubbish dump which is in London England. I tell say anything else about it apart from its a really lovly piece. I've got Another one by A. Stone and will put it on here soon. Thanks for your Comments :)
american: Alice Balch Stone 1876-1927. michaan's has a tiny photo of a signature which looks identical. it's a nice painting - kind of barbizon style.
That is great news thanks. How did you found out her name??
some detective work and some familiarity w/ the genre. i was searching several different long lists of hudson river painters and their cohorts along w/ barbizon painter lists, and i found hers. the only signature i could see was a really small thumbscale, but it looked like a perfect fit - A. Stone - in red paint w/ that very victorian slanted letter style.
i turn 50 next wk and finding lost paintings has been a hobby since i was 16 and found an enormous albert bierstadt painting at a country auction and bought it for $1200. that got me started!
I'm getting a job at the Rubbish Dump!!!
i go to the dump whenever i can - and always think if only i worked at the dump, i'd find wonderful treasures all the time - and i'd need about 6 more warehouses to keep it all!
the frame on this painting doesn't do much for me. it looks to be only part of the frame - line the inner, gilded section of a much larger, victorian frame. i'd find a similar one for this painting. i think the painting is really beautiful, by the way.
Happy 50th for last week ho2cultcha your Information has Helped me out so much,thank you.
Is the painting of the Hudson River ? It would be great to know that it is.
Yeah I need more Space as my Attic and all my hind away are getting pretty full lol
