<B>McKinley Hobart Folkart Campaign Painting.</B></I> Eloquently executed is this painting on board of a bowl of violets centered for display on a table. At first glance you immediately think "How pretty!" until your eye finally falls on the artist's hidden intention. Painted onto the green leaves near the top, you can read the names "McKinley" and "Hobart" in delicate cursive on the leaves. Faintly, in the left corner you can see the artist's signature, "E Jonk" and a date of "May, 1896". Interesting as a pleasant painting but far more important as a piece of political memorabilia, the condition of the piece is excellent in this 12"x 6" size.
