#67 ~ Lewis - Pair of Oxen
Lot #67

Artist Maud Lewis
Title Pair of Oxen
Media enamel on paper board
Size 12 x 14 in. / 30.5 x 35.6 cm.

Notes
signed lower right; framed

Reference
noted Maud Lewis expert Alan Deacon writes about this painting 'I believe this painting was done in 1969 possibly 1970. Maud Lewis died July 30th ,1970. It looks to me if the green used to paint the conifers needles and branches was probably done with marker. Again it is very typical for Maud Lewis to use marker in later works. Often the marker fades with time but this green seems quite resistant to fading. So despite the strangeness of the work I do believe the painting is authentic'; we would like to thank Mr. Deacon for his help over the years; The McMichael Gallery will be having a major Maud Lewis Exhibition from June 29 to January 5, 2020.

#75 ~ Lewis - Untitled - Pair of Oxen
Lot #75

Artist Maud Lewis
Title Untitled - Pair of Oxen
Media enamel on paper board
Dated ca.  1968
Size 12 x 14 in. / 30.5 x 35.6 cm.

Notes
signed lower right; framed; some surface dirt noted; envelope of newspaper clippings attached verso

Reference
noted Maud Lewis expert Alan Deacon writes about this painting 'This work was almost certainly painted in late 1968. Towards the end of her life her pictures are thinly painted. Here the colours are strong. Maud's signature at that time is thin and scratchy. Using a magnifier you will no doubt be able to see some of Maud's pencil outlines. As you know the work is a serial image, in other words there are similar paintings but no two works are exactly the same. The oxen series are one of the few serial images that span three decades.'; we would like to thank Mr. Deacon for his help over the years

Provenance
received as a gift in 1972 and by descent to a private collection, Southern Alberta
