JAMES ROSS WATERCOLOR PAINTING VALLEY GREEN INN PHILADELPHIA IN SUMMER 1930’s ?

Description: VINTAGE (1930’s era probably) ORIGINAL WATERCOLOR PAINTING FROM THE ARTIST, JAMES ROSS. I REMOVED THE PAPER BACKING SO THAT I COULD SEE WHAT WAS WRITTEN ON THE BACK OF THE PAINTING. AS YOU CAN SEE, IT IS TITLED “VALLEY GREEN, SUMMER. THIS PAINTING SHOWS THE HISTORIC “VALLEY GREEN INN” IN PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA IN SUMMER. THE MEDIUM IS WATERCOLOR ON PAPER AND IS SIGNED BY THE ARTIST. IT IS IN THE ORIGINAL WOOD FRAME, MATTED & UNDER GLASS. IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH NO MOLD OR FOXING NOTED. I WILL LEAVE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BACKING PAPER UP TO THE NEW OWNER. THIS IS A WONDERFUL PIECE OF PHILADELPHIA HISTORY THAT WILL DISPLAY NICELY IN ANY HOME OR OFFICE. ONE VERY UNIQUE CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS PAINTING IS THE FACT THAT THE ARTIST DIDN’T QUITE FINISH THIS PAINTING. HE PENCILED IN TWO PEOPLE ON THE STREET IN FRONT OF THE INN BUT FORGOT TO ACTUALLY PAINT THEM IN! MOST FOLKS WOULD NEVER EVEN NOTICE THE PENCILED IN FIGURES AND I JUST THINK THEY ADD A BIT OF INTRIGUE TO THE PAINTING. I HAVE INCLUDED A CLOSE-UP PICTURE OF THOSE TWO PENCILED FIGURES. THE FRAME MEASURES 19" X 16 1/2" WITH THE PAINTING ITSELF MEASURING 12" X 9". AS WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, I AM ALWAYS OPEN TO OFFERS AND COMMENTS SINCE DETERMINING VALUE IS ALWAYS OPEN TO DISCUSSION. WE HAD AN ANTIQUE SHOP FOR MANY YEARS BUT CLOSED IT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. WITH LOTS OF INVENTORY LEFT OVER, I AM LISTING BOTH AUCTIONS & “BUY IT NOW” ITEMS IN MY STORE. WE ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPING TO SAVE YOU MONEY, TOO!
