Antique American Southwest Folk Art Double Sided Painting Indians Deer Hunter
This painting is out of a mansion that was previously located in Little Italy, Omaha, Nebraska, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Omaha. It measures 48 inches wide by 36 inches tall. This is a double sided painting, someone painted on an old sign. There is a steel sign underneath here at one point in time I was able to read the writing on the sign of who manufactured the sign, but I couldn’t find it as I was looking through this time but I know it’s on there. It could be an old Pepsi sign or Dr Pepper sign or whatever so there’s three pieces here there’s a sign underneath the painting that’s unknown there’s a side that has the Indians on the mountain overlooking a horse caravan down below, and on the opposite side is a painting of a deer hunter getting ready to shoot a deer up creek from him, there is some paint that’s missing as seen that is fell off on one side and on the side where the Indian is at it kind of has rust bleeding through. I’m guessing this painting is from the early 1900s there is a signature on both sides one side I cannot read the other side is somewhat eligible, but I do not know who the artist is, I’m not into collecting folk art, but this is a beautiful piece regardless, if somebody painted it or somebody else just painted it, I really don’t know it would be an excellent piece to display. If you’re collecting this type of artwork, please message me with any questions as you can see I took pictures of the frame looks like somebody made the frame. The corners are a little bit loose, the metal is held in by nails as seen on the back again this is a very nice piece of folk at its finest.
