17: ROBERT FARRINGTON ELWELL (1874-1962) OIL ON CANVA

Robert Farrington Elwell
Untitled, style of pulp magazine cover art. (Circa 1930s.)
Action image of a fleeing cowboy just out of reach of arrows from unseen Indians, signed lower right. A classic example of the genre that Elwell is known for. The composition of the image leaves room for the magazine name above and story teasers below the action-packed scene that he produced by the dozens throughout the 1930s, mostly for All Western Magazine.
Canvas measures 24 x 18 with a frame of 30 x 24.5 inches.
$2,500 - $3,000
