Waterfall Through Painterly Green, Just Right c. 1940s Watercolor in Period Frame

As is most often the case, this watercolor is better than photos convey, with a real presence and richness to those greens. Somehow it keeps making me think of Frank Lloyd Wright--maybe it’s the falling water!--but I could also imagine it hanging near a window in the Gropius house in Lincoln, MA. A modernist landscape with a sophisticated sense to how the water cuts through the forest. Lovely, and a great one to live with.

10 5/8" x 7 1/2" framed as found, under glass in a simple black stained wood frame with original cardboard backing and hanging wire. Good condition, with a little wear to the stain on the frame at the corners, no matter.
