Wyeth garnered considerablerenown for his work with Scribner’s, particularly his illustration of the ScribnerClassics. The present painting illustrates a fantastic yarn about an unknownartist, a farmer in fact, painting in the Pennsylvania country side. A veryrespected picture-dealer in London tells the tale of discovering the artistamong the Quakers. The picture-dealer had just wandered far through fieldand forest before dawn, stopping to lean on a tree as the artist brought hiscows out to graze as the sun rose beyond the hills. When the picture-dealer’s guests saw the farmer’s painting, he drew comparisons to Vermeerand Leonardo Da Vinci. It seems only fitting that Wyeth would be asked toillustrate a story of an exceptional artist working in rural Pennsylvania.$120,000-180,000
