by [Rhead, Louis]
A wonderful, large opaque watercolor by Louis Rhead depicting a woman carrying laundry in, with another woman putting laundry on a line, brick wall and trees in background in distinctively poster-like style, reminiscent of Edward Penfield, in bright colors. Matted and framed in simple wood frame (image size is: 7 1/4" wide by 11 1/4" tall; frame size is: 17" wide and 21 1/2" tall).
Slight wear to signature, else fine. This may have been a study, or finished design for a book cover or poster concept, as the hanging sheet taking up a good area middle left, would be a perfect area for lettering/titling. These kind of graphic quality Rhead paintings are quite scarce. (Inventory #: 3767)
