c1880 A tranquil scene of Indian Teepees amidst pine trees, boulders and greenery, nestled beside a stream in the shadow of what appears to be a snow-covered Mt. Moran. The painting is signed by Frisch. This could possibly be John Carl Frisch (1845-1915) but no documentation could be found to determine that he worked in the American West in the late 19th-early 20th centuries. He is noted as living in New York, yet one of the few paintings attributed to him is of the River Ouse in England. Our painting is framed under glass in an ornate gilt and oak double wooden frame. The original wooden backing is in place although taped repairs on the back are evident and the outer gilt frame is separating from the inner oak frame. The painting itself measures approximately 10 x 13,” with an overall measurement of 17 x 20.” Mt. Moran rises above Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park in western Wyoming and has an elevation of 12,605 feet. - HKA#65177
