Signed vintage early seascape pastel painting

Fine Art : Drawings : Western American Art : Oregon

 

Pastel on thin paper board seascape of waves and distant shipping on a gray, overcast day, 10" by 18" (15" by 23" as framed) signed at lower left "Mangold". This is an early work by an obviously talented artist who is probably not listed anywhere. This pastel comes with its original old early 20th century frame. There is a circa 1920's or 1930's red circular Seattle framing sticker on the reverse. The painting has a definite East Coast look to it; indeed I thought it would be by a Hudson River artist, when I first saw it, in Florida at an antique show. The Seattle sticker was therefore a surprise. Condition is excellent with perhaps an old smudge in foreground and at extreme right, but I'm not sure that is what it is. Currently the work is without glass. I might want to replace that with plexiglas for safe shipping. The gold frame has some interesting details. There are some areas of peeling and minor corner losses. Email me for more photos SEE HUNDREDS OF OTHER PAINTINGS IN MY SHOP.
