Oil on Canvas of an English Barnyard Scene with Staddlestones
We bought this large and extremely well-executed English barnyard scene many years back because it pictured granaries built on staddlestones. Figuring a picture was worth a thousand words, we've educated thousands on staddlestones and are now putting the painting on the market. Apparently unsigned (we've not removed the frame; however), it is a beautiful and substantial painting, featuring multiple barns, roosters, chickens, a shaggy dog, and several staddlestones. Its original carved giltwood frame has a few nicks and losses, and the painting could do with a good cleaning, but nothing so substantial as to detract from the overall effect. Wonderful in a country house library!
