CHARLES BURCHFIELD
Untitled (House on a Hill).

Watercolor and pencil on paper adhered to cardstock, 1917. 396x483 mm; 15 5/8x19 inches. Signed and dated in pencil, lower right recto, and dated "Nov. 4 - 1917" in pencil, verso. Ex-collection private collection; thence by descent.

Accompanying this lot is a research report completed by The Burchfield Penney Art Center, Buffalo, New York.

Nancy Weekly, Burchfield Scholar and Head of Collections and the Charles Cary Rumsey Curator at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, writes in the accompanying report, "the painting aligns stylistically with Burchfield's paintings from around 1917; however, an exact match with existing documents could not be found."
