Description
Frank Nelson Wilcox (American, 1887-1964)
"Catastrophe", pen and ink with watercolor on paper, with ink inscription by the hand of the artist.

Matted and framed under glass. Overall size 9-1/4" x 22".
The state of Ohio at one time had approximately 1,000 miles of barge canals, constructed between 1825 and 1845 and was an important economic factor in the development of the state. By the 1860's however, railroad transportation took over most of the canals freight and passenger business. A leading American Scene watercolorist from Ohio, he was a native of Cleveland who enrolled in the Cleveland School of Art in 1906 and studied with Henry Keller. From about 1910 to 1916, he painted outdoors with Keller at Berlin Heights and experimented with Impressionism. However, several years later, he developed his signature style which was American Scene or regionalist genre in a transparent watercolor technique.
