Antique AAFA horses and lightening oil on board circa 1880 with professional restoration, cleaning and framing. Originally acquired in Wiscasset, Maine. Lightening bolt in background original to picture and not a restoration. Picture measures 17" x 8" x 1". Restoration and cleaning was the only way to save this beautiful painting. I was almost completely black with dirt, dust and soot and had tape on the top that was stuck to the painting. I used a conservator from Glen Ellyn, Illinois who only did conservation-restoration work and framing. He was employed by the Art Institute of Chicago for 35 years as a painting conservator. This was my last work I was able to have done from him before his full retirement. I am currently downsizing my collection so please see my additional items for sale.
