Small log cabin in a winter snow scene. Beautiful painting & original frame. Old note attached to back reads "Alexander Proctor/Painter & Sculpture. Proctor was born on September 27, 1860, in Bosanquet, Ontario, to Alexander and Tirzah (Smith) Proctor, the fourth in a family of eleven children. The family moved to Michigan in 1863, Iowa in 1864 or 1865, and six years later to Denver, Colorado. There Proctor developed a love for hunting and sketching wild animals. He took his first art lessons in Denver, and his first employment in art was with a wood-engraving firm, for which he made twenty wood engravings for a book entitled Hands Up (1880). Provenance: Ben-Tschavtschavadze collection of Ontario. (Courtesy of the Proctor Foundation) This painting has 1 tiny pin hole at center of painting. Please inspect. 16" x 13".
