This is an original, large sized, framed painting of a man and his horse by New England based painter, Chester Van Nortwick (1881 - 1944). He was best known for depicting the life of fishermen in the New England area and he even did illustration art for publication. This work is somewhat rendered in the illustration style and is a minor departure from his typical depictions. The estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail 'asking prices' can be higher and vary.
