ORIGINAL EVELINE ROBERGE FOLK ART NEWPORT FARM VIEW PAINTED STOOL. THIS IS A REALLY GREAT PIECE. THE SECOND PIECE I HAVE HAD OF THIS FAMOUS NEWPORT FOLK ARTIST’S WORK. THE LAST PIECE, LIKE MOST PIECES YOU SEE, WAS AN ORIGINAL PAINTING ON BOARD THAT HUNG ON THE WALL. THIS IS SOMETHING A BIT DIFFERENT. SIGNED AND INSCRIBED ON THE UNDERSIDE, THIS WAS A WOOD STOOL THAT THE ARTIST PAINTED FOR A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR A CLOSE FRIEND. BEING DATED 1967 THIS IS AN EARLIER PIECE BY THE ARTIST. THE STOOL MEASURES 10 1/2 X 10 1/2 X 16 INCHES. THE TOP IS PAINTED WITH A GREAT FOLK ART FARM AND ESTATE SCENE. THE PAINTING SHOWS SOME MINOR CHIPS AND SOME SURFACE GRIME FROM USE BUT OVERALL IT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. THE SIDES AND UNDERSIDE ARE PAINTED TO MATCH. ALL IN ALL IT IS A WONDERFUL PIECE AND WOULD DISPLAY GREAT. JUST A RARE PIECE BY THIS HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER AND COLLECTED NEWPORT RHODE ISLAND ARTIST. HER PAINTINGS SELL FOR THOUSANDS AND PIECES LIKE THIS JUST DONT COME AROUND. DONT MISS THIS CHANCE. IF YOU COLLECT ROBERGE OR WANT TO START, MAKE SURE YOU CHECK MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR THE 3 OTHER WORKS. DONT HESITATE TO MAKE AN OFFER IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. THESE WORKS NEVER LAST. CHECK THE PICTURES ON THIS EXCELLENT PIECE!! PICTURES ARE AN EXCELLENT INDICATION OF CONDITION. CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND YOU WILL SEE THAT MY CUSTOMERS ARE HAPPY.
