Oil on Canvas Painting, Industrial Still Life of Rusty Gear, Lock, Brick and Mandolin c. 1940 1950, artist signed N. Davis Sculpture Signed lower right GM JohnstonOil on Canvas, Industrial Still Life of Rusty Gear, Lock, Brick and Mandolin, signed to reverse N. Davis, c. 1940 1950 dare I say masculine? Reminds me of WPA era artists' work. Inventive use of furniture tacks to hold the canvas (which I think is really linen). Wonderfully textural surface. Measures 20"T x 24"W BRIM_SP20_68
