Please Note: Under closer inspection it appears that there is a faint signature lower right which is illegible, however it appears to read “Smith”.

UNSIGNED (American, Last half of the 19th Century) COASTAL SCENE DEPICTING NAVAL ACADEMY OR YACHT CLUB.

Oil on wood panel scene shows a three-story white building with green shutters having a large porch with several people on the porch. A smaller building is to the left with people and a tall flagpole with American flag and gold eagle finial. The shoreline has a road with white picket fence and three cannons serviced by two men in military outfits. The well kept lawn reaches along the dock with boat house topped with an Indian princess holding a bow & arrow. In the foreground in a single mast sailboat and a three-person rowboat. At the end of the dock is a single-mast sailboat with two figures. In the distance is a sidewheel coastal steamer and several sails. NOTE: This painting was found in the Tiverton, Rhode Island area and was thought to be a depiction somewhere along the Newport/New Bedford coast. It is also possible that it shows a military academy on the Maryland coast. More research is needed to pinpoint the actual location as there are a number of landmarks that should be recorded. NOTE: The detailed rendering in this painting is reminiscent of James E. Buttersworth and C H Gifford’s work. SIZE: 6″ x 12-3/4″. Overall: 11-1/4″ x 18″. CONDITION: Original, untouched condition, tack holes in corners. 51319-13 (6,000-12,000) – Lot 2082
