L.J. Wenner Pennsylvania Landscape Oil, "Clay Road," Signed 1942

Sale price$450.00

A small Pennsylvania landscape from November 1942, "Clay Road, Near Easton, Pennsylvania," signed and dated lower right by L.J. Wenner, an Allentown painter then serving with the U.S. Army at Fort Myer, Virginia. The autumnal Lehigh Valley: a country road curving between dark cedars, a white farmhouse behind the tree line, an ochre-leaved tree at center against the deep evergreen mass, the distant blue ridge beyond. A typed period label on the verso records the title, location, date, size, and Wenner's Allentown address and military unit, numbering this his piece #12. The work belongs to the Lehigh Valley regional landscape tradition around Walter Emerson Baum. Original period gilt frame. Board 12 x 16 in.; framed 14 x 17.5 in.
