Description
Marshalltown, Nova Scotia. C. 1967. Drawing on her memories and surroundings, Maud Lewis gave expression to her rich imagination. A love of nature and affinity for animals is evident throughout her art. In this work, a male deer leaps. This is a serial image but scarcely seen in Winter. Although rendered in a simple palette, it is full of the brightness of a Canadian forest in Winter. Signed lower right, "Maud. Lewis".
Condition
Good condition. Minor chips to the corners of the board.

Mixed media on masonite.
Provenance
Purchased directly from the artist by a descendent of the owner.
