Product code: Shops Antique c1930 Brutalist Locomotive Train Painting Sculpture signed Mueller
Up for sale is an absolutely fantastic piece that I picked up from a local estate sale. I'm not sure exactly how to describe this, but the piece appears to be a mixed media painting/sculpture of a locomotive rushing toward the audience. The train and the tracks appear to have been shaped from an old piece of metal, while the surrounding sky appears to be a painted lacquered ceramic. The piece is inset in a rough-hewed wood frame that really gives it a rustic, steampunk-like aesthetic. An absolutely cool piece. "Mueller" carved along the lower right-center edge. I'd estimate this to the 1930's, possibly 1940's. The piece looks a bit older than that, but the frame's construction suggests a 1930-1950 date. The piece is in excellent condition. The frame shows a little wear, but some of that may simply be the shops aesthetic. Painting/sculpture measures approximately 8.625 inches high x 6.5 inches wide. Frame measures approximately 11.125 inches high x 8.875 inches wide.
