Rare Drysdale, "Camps on Lake Pontchartrain" (Framed Impressionist Landscape) 1923. I paid a good deal more than usual for this Drysdale, because it is quite unusual and rare. Of course, the great majority of his paintings were scenes of oaks on a bayou, and are oil washes on paper. This is an actual oil on canvas of camp houses along Lake Pontchartrain, and though it has the Drysdale touch, it is brighter and prettier, really vibrant like a French Impressionist painting, and highly desirable in terms of subject matter. Heads and shoulders above the usual if you want a painting by this iconic New Orleans artist, but want something really extraordinary. Signed and dated lower left, "Williams Frame Shop, New Orleans, LA" label on reverse of frame, 21 1/4 in. x 30 in., framed.
