American “Trappers in
a Canoe” Oil Painting
on Canvas by Arthur
Hutchins - Mounted in a
gold painted frame, with
a visible area 13 inches

canvas construction,
featuring two men in frontier garb rowing a canoe through rough
water. “ARTHUR/HUTCHINS” is signed in the lower left corner, and the
stretcher shows an unclear pencil marking on the rear. No history on
artist available, although the high quality of his work is similar to other
American artists of the late 19th/early 20th century.
CONDITION: Fine, with minor age on the canvas and some chips on
the veneer of the otherwise fine original frame.
Estimate: 2,000 - 3,500
