Brook Trout – Salvelinus fontinalis – native to the Eastern US, including the North Georgia Mountains, AKA Speckled Trout, where groups of Specs or Brookies, a “hover” are rare – our Southern sub-species may be extinct. Northern Brookies are now stocked in colder South Mountain waters. ORIGINAL WORK – Painted in heavy body textured acrylic, on 12 x 16 canvas board. A Chilliwack jacket cost more but will not increase in value to outpace inflation.

This is a rare and fantastic, super nice piece of early American primitive folk art. An oil on canvas still life painting, ca 1880’s to 1890’s, depicting a string – or 2 sticks really, of speckled trout. Quite possibly upstate NY or New Hampshire but could be from anywhere with woods and fish. The painting has nice colors with a great subject matter. It is a fresh find gleaned from a long time private collection, and comes in sweet, as found condition, with no cleaning or restoration of any kind on my or the previous owners end. Attic fresh so to speak. It comes framed in a period Adirondack type wooden Oak & Gesso frame with old stretcher & with old nails, all appropriate to the time period. The stretcher was a little loose in the frame so a couple modern screws were added to the back of the frame to better secure the painting. This can be easily changed should someone wish to. The painting is unsigned but seems pretty well done. Framed it is 25.5 tall and 17.5. Not much of any issues at all for its age, just one little stretcher edge split in the canvas as pictured… About 3/4 long and some lite finish wear. This painting will make a nice addition to any folk art collection or to any wall in general. Its a nice find! Any questions PLEASE ask!
