The art looks like Maxfield Parrish or a similar sytle.-( is there a figure in it?- ---and I can't read the lettering on the bottom, or see your photos very well.)
I see a figure when I enlarged it--But Max Parrish, I think, would have had a semi- nude there--not the rustic. Altho, I sure have not seen that many M.P.--so what do I know??
Thank you. Will post better images!
it is in the style of Maxfield Parrish - which was Japanese, really. Although he did lots of paintings which did not include semi-nude figures, this does not look like his work to me. but it is definitely from the same period - and very nice! i wish the photos were more clear. i can't even make out the words below the images.
I replied to this post, and pooooof it's gone.
Anyway, this is a Tryptich painting. If you could manage to restore it or even a clean I'm sure it would look great. The writing says: "The noblest mind, and the best ???entertainment ????" Poop!
Darn how can I wow people if I don't get it right myself: Triptych
Apologies - Piles of them.
Upon further inspection....
Artist: c1947 Crisp
Arthur Watkins Crisp, (Canadian/American, 1881-1974)
Quote: Spenser (1600s poet)
'the noblest Mind...the best Contentment has'
Question now, how the 'triptych' came together with both and from where?
