For your consideration are two, original Paul Krapf oils on board from the mid to late 20th century. Paul Krapf (1927-2019) was a wildlife and landscape artist from Gardiner, Montana at the southern end of the beautiful Paradise Valley north of majestic Yellowstone National Park. His house and studio were built along the Yellowstone River 11 miles north of the park. The inhabitants of Yellowstone National Park were his frequent subjects. He also produced coastal views, especially Oregon’s, as well as Western scenes and landscapes. The first and larger piece in this lot features a sea side location with a large tree on the shore. In the background, clouds hang over the sea and other cliff faces and shoreline can be seen. The piece is signed on the bottom right hand corner reading, "Krapf" in black ink. The second piece shows a sunset scene on a shore with towering rock formations seen in the background. Large mountains can be seen behind the rock formations and reflections bounce off of the wet sand. The piece is signed in the bottom right hand corner in gray paint reading, "Krapf". Both pieces are done on board and not framed. They show good condition overall with little wear present and no signs of damage noted. The larger painting measures 18" L x 24" W, while the smaller one measures 15" L x 22" W. They have a collective weight of 2 pounds and 4 ounces.
