You can’t figure the Indiana vintage art market sometimes… Months without seeing good available work by any given artist and then a run of pieces. We’ve had two beautiful T.C. Steele paintings come through our hands recently (both sold) and now a third that we are pleased to offer you today. To the Overlook (our title) is an outstanding example of Steele’s work. At 30" x 40" and housed in an original 6” Lieber frame, the piece is monumental on the wall. The work features a sun-touched Brown County road approaching a hilltop overlook and contains beautiful treatment of light and a distinct focus on the native foliage. It’s a cheerful and painterly piece full of detail showcasing Steele’s masterful abilities. The painting was conserved and relined, c. 1979. The work contains no in-painting and the paint is stable. It is housed in the original (and impressive) Lieber frame. Brown County art in its highest form, from its foremost practitioner. An absolute classic.
