I was recently at an auction of some wonderful Cape Ann paintings. I have often admired Paul George paintings as I see them in collections around New England. I was lucky enough to just acquire 2 of them that I am offering this week. For those not familiar with the artist, I have included his biography below. This is one of his most classic images. A beautiful view of a couple sailboats off Gloucester Massachusetts. A large gouache and watercolor on paper measuring 14 1/2 x 20 1/4 inches. Signed lower left. Painting is in perfect as painted condition. Just a beautiful work. Archival matte and gold frame are the perfect compliment and presentation. Ready to hang. Just the complete package. Frame measures 21 3/4 x 27 inches. If you collect Paul George or Cape Ann paintings, make sure you check my store. A great chance to pick up some of the artist's work for a fraction of the gallery pricing.
