Wonderful Small, Early 19th C. Folk Art Watercolor of Houses on Hill horse and trees but assume it was once

but assume it was once part of a wall relief

Paper really is bright white and very clean

beautifully irregular

A great addition to a collection of mid-century California pottery

I think this is a little gem of a landscape

Wonderful Small, Early 19th C. Folk Art Watercolor of Houses on Hill horse and trees but assume it was onceI was quite surprised and delighted to find this one when rummaging through a box of odds and ends at a not especially fine shop about 30 minutes from home the other day, but wonders never cease! It is a small one, but definitely an early one, c. 1820s 30s I believe, and I'd bet painted of a village not far from here. Great color, iconic New England, and based on how it was trimmed I'm sure it once lived in a miniature type frame with round opening,
