This painting was featured in our weekly email on 10/9/13 along with the following gallery comments: Adolph Shulz began his painting career in Delavan, WI where he found immediate success with his local landscapes. It was in 1900 that he first ventured to Brown County and continued to make frequent trips there before moving to Nashville permanently in 1917. The Abandoned Road, c. 1910 is a fantastic example from this period when he was splitting time between Delavan and Brown County, featuring great use of light and depth and painted to full completion. It is wonderfully representative of Shulz’s style with the intricate foreground contrasted with more tonal background elements. The painting has been cleaned and conserved and contains very minimal inpainting. It’s housed in the original frame that has been re-gilded in 16K pale gold. –Curt Churchman, Fine Estate Art
