Western American illustration art gouache painting transcontinental railroad and wagon train

Fine Art : Drawings : Western American Art

 

Beautifully detailed mid 20th century drawing by a skilled illustration trained artist, unsigned, 14" by 19" (19 1/2" by 24" as framed), depicting a classic scene of late 19th century America, perhaps in Utah near the Great Salt Lake, with old fashioned steam locomotive and rail cars, a conestoga wagon train halted along the tracks. Save for slight buckling of the paper maybe dating to the creation of the drawing, the condition is excellent with no foxing. I purchased this in San Antonio, Texas. I wouldn't be at all surprised if this were by a listed artist, but since it's unsigned I can't tell you who created it.
