Fish Among Rocks, Edwin Stetson's Old Carved and Painted Folk Art Plaque civil war tintype which I think is just

which I think is just a beautiful object I’d hang on the wall

from pale blond to khaki to olive to brown

Cornish & Rock" in 1833

where you really feel its object hood

But as there are two complete sheets and also two with some of the animals long ago removed

Fish Among Rocks, Edwin Stetson's Old Carved and Painted Folk Art Plaque civil war tintype which I think is justThis one was proudly signed by Edwin Stetson on reverse, which includes another drawing of a fish, and then another "Ed" for good measure. I think it's just terrific, very naive and also transcendent, with shallow relief carving giving a bit of dimension to the fish and chunky rocks below. I love the patch of white at top, distinguishing sea from sky, and the painterly treatment of this great green and yellow fish against deep blue. 6 1 8" x 4" x 3
