Elmer Crowell Decorative Yellowlegs

A. Elmer Crowell (1862-1952) East Harwich, MA, 1915 This stunning yellowlegs has delicate tail and primary wing carving. It also shows the subtle rump typically seen on Crowell’s earliest works. The paint is expertly blended with the makers "wet-on-wet" feathering. The bird has high grade glass eyes and a delicate thin base, typically seen on the makers earliest works. Retains Crowell's oval brand on bottom. Excellent original paint with light craquelure. Bill appears to have been professionally restored.
