Rare Antique Folk art oil. Dimensions: 22 x 19 inches without frame. 25 x 22 inches with frame. Description: Oil on canvas. Titled Skowhegan Maine on the back. Very interesting folk art painting with view from the Skowhegan Falls before the dams. The scene shows figures cutting wood and people in boats picking up logs from the water. Log driving was popular in Skowhegan from the early 19th century until it ended in 1976. The first settlers cut the trees on their farms to build log cabins and barns. When they started to run out of trees in this area, so they had to cut the trees up the river and float them down river to Skowhegan. They built sawmills on the Skowhegan island in order to saw lumber to build the houses in Skowhegan village. Later they built pulp and paper mills up and down the Kennebec river, and began to cut pulpwood for making paper. The painting originates from a Norwegian family whose relations worked in Maine. A very rare oil and a collectors dream. Condition: Ready to hang. The oil could use a light cleaning, due to the old age. Otherwise fine with no holes, tears or missing paint. The original salon frame has minor scratches due to the age. All our items are located at our gallery in Copenhagen, Denmark. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting.

Folk art hall tree / painted wood, repurposed materials / Maine / c. Whimsical antique painted folk art hall tree in green and gold, Maine, c. The piece is composed of a back board cut from a single plank in an eccentric silhouette onto which found and repurposed elements were attached to fashion a hat and coat rack. The radiating turned arms originate from a late 18th or early 19th century yarn winder or spinning wheel, as do the capped dowel hooks and turned feet. At its waist is mounted a mysterious birdhouse-like box with a indicator intended to spin, its purpose unknown perhaps a conveniently-placed penny bank if change remained in your coat pocket? The hall tree is painted a brilliant emerald green with gold stencil embellishments and borders. A fun and playful piece of folk art furniture to brighten your entryway, equally at home in traditional and modern environments. Very good antique condition. The spinning wheel arm hooks are attached at the hub with the original iron bolt and are secured by an additional screw or two and the back (as seen in the photos). The piece shows some evidence of earlier repairs. For more pleasing and peculiar objects, follow “oldasadam” on Instagram and Facebook.
