auction house painting (detail of left side).

[duccio]

This detail of an oil on panel painting by George Herbert McCord (American, 1848-1909) reminded me of Winslow Homer's Civil War paintings, and his later paintings about fishing. It is more impressionistic than Homer though, but seems to have that metaphorical sense that Homer did. Bidding starts at $1000. Estimates are $2000-4000. The vertical dimension is 9.5". Hammer price: $2500.00.
