American School, 19th Century
'Children Landing a Catfish', 19th Century American School, Large Nocturnal Oil

About the Item

A substantial, mid-to-late 19th century American School nocturnal landscape showing a view of three children, accompanied by their terrier, fishing by lamp-light and startled by the appearance of a large catfish. An amusing and whimsical, yet realistically painted, genre work dating to circa 1860 and showing a lyrical view, beyond expansive fields, towards a delicately-realized sunset.
