Victor Olson (1924-2007) American, Winter Landscape on Board. Image shows a boat anchored along a frozen snowy dock. Along with being a Saturday Evening Post, Norman Rockwell Peer, Photorealism specialist, and illustrator he was also an artist capturing the world around him. This image is similar to many of his other winter images. As a Connecticut local it is hard not to want to capture the beauty of nature, as well as a touch of humanity far removed from the summer boating season. 

Provenance: Directly from daughter of the artist.

Condition: Back of the board can see the tape marks where it is connected and bottom right has signs of water damage that do not appear on the paper on the front.
