Renee asks:


Hi Walt, Ever see anything like this?


It belonged to my grandmother/great grandmother. I love this picture and would like to know more about it (if there is anything to know)! It has a brown frame with glass over print. The picture is not signed that I can see.


Really can’t tell you if picture is watercolor, print, or what. Thanks for taking a look.


AW says:

Hi Renee, I sure have. In fact I can't pinpoint the artist but I know a bit about these types of prints and have sold many of them. It's circa 1920s. From the little I can see it looks as though it's in it's original frame.
These types of prints are called Cottage Prints, or some will call them Maxfield Parrish Types, named after the leader in this field.
I'm pretty sure the one you have is by R Atkinson Fox but I'm not 100% on that, there were many artist that did this style.

These colorful prints have the look of a watercolor and blend in work with any decor.


I'd put this at about $95.00 to $125.00.
