perhaps including smoked mackerel

but it certainly seems to have a good amount of age

Gorgeous aging to the paint

And then too there were multiple generations of Dummers who had their hands in all of this

Pink and Yellow Bird with Flowers and Perched Owl, PA Naive Drawing c. 1900 woman with braids perhaps including smoked mackerelI found this drawing in Pennsylvania tucked inside a school notebook, c. 1900 or so. Just a joyful thing, this pink bird with yellow wings, worm in its beak and flowers of all sorts springing forth around it. And a little owl perched on one stalk too. PA for sure, graphite and crayon on lined notebook paper. 6 7 8" x 8 3 8". Very good condition. Paper is a bit brittle.
