This is a great, whimsical, very folksy, painting that I bought in Vermont many years ago. I love the artwork and the detail on this wonderful representation of a bold cock. It is painted on a composition board reminiscent of the late part of the 19th C. The image reminds me of the Pennsylvania Dutch. The patina is quite wonderful. It appears to have been, at some point, nailed onto perhaps a barn wall. The painted frame, however, seems to have held this piece for a long time too. Perhaps it was rescued from a wall. Please note the ability of the hand and the creativity of this painting. The piece is 23" X 23". More image upon request.
