OIL ON CANVAS LANDSCAPE DELAWARE WATER GAP
The Delaware Water Gap is a mountain pass on the border of New Jersey and Pennsylvania where the Delaware River traverses a large ridge of the Appalachian Mountains. The ridge of the Appalachians that the Delaware crosses is called the Blue Mountains in Pennsylvania and the Kittatinny Ridge in New Jersey. In this charismatic oil painting of this iconic American landscape, H. Landell, the artist, captures a railroad train as it steams through the Gap. It is the only movement in a scene of gentle tranquility--a scene of everyday leisure in the foreground (a fisherman on a rock). Signed H. Landell, 1875, lower right. Painting has been cleaned and rebacked.
