Lot #14: "FISH CREEK POND" - Adirondack Mountains, NY

Another painting I imagine would not go in a powder room. This fall landscape is a perfect excuse for a road trip to Fish Creek Pond in the Adirondacks. This oil on canvas was crafted in 1961 by "R. Craddock" and offered for sale at that time. Painting itself is in fine condition; unfortunately, if you look at the upper left-hand corner of the frame, you will see someone needed a bit of a snack at some point in time and decided that corner of the frame wood do. Painting is very heavy as the frame is solid wood and made with generous proportions. Here is what a Google search had to say about him..."Artist R. Craddock is a regional, mid-century painter known for atmospheric landscapes and pastoral scenes, including works depicting the Adirondacks. Paintings signed by R. Craddock from this era regularly circulate in the vintage art market, though the artist has limited documented auction or biographical records. Dimensions: 29 x 35 Pickup category timeslot {A}
