    Description

    THIS LISTING IS FOR A VERY RARE ORIGINAL JOHN W. DUNN 1930's WATERCOLOR ARTWORK.JOHN W. DUNN COMPETED AT THE 1932 SUMMER OLYMPICS IN LOS ANGELES.  DUNN WAS BORN IN WASHINGTON D.C. ON APRIL 5th 1891 AND DIED APRIL 7th 1975 AT THE AGE OF 84 IN WASHINGTON D.C. HIS WORK WAS PART OF A PAINTING COMPETITION AT THE 1932 SUMMER OLYMPICS THAT WAS HELD IN LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA. DUNN'S NATIONALITY WAS AMERICAN. HIS OCCUPATION WAS A PAINTER PRIMARILY IN WATERCOLORS.I FOUND THIS RARE PAINTING ALONG WITH TWO OTHERS AT A WEEKLY ESTATES AUCTION HERE IN LANCASTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. I BELIEVE THIS PAINTING IS FROM THE 1930's BUT I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT WAS PART OF THE OLYMPIC ART COMPETITION. I BELIEVE THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THIS PAINTING IS OF JAPANESE COLONEL BARON NISHI GOLD MEDALIST SHOW JUMPER ON HIS HORSE URANUS AT THE 1932 GAMES. IT DOES LOOK LIKE IT IS PART OF AN OLYMPIC EQUESTRIAN COMPETITION POSSIBLY JAPAN WAS THE ENTRANT. THIS ARTWORK SHOULD APPEAL TO MANY WHO LOVE THE OLYMPICS AND WATERCOLOR ART. FOR HISTORY SAKE (OLYMPIC ARTIST) THIS WORK NEEDS TO GO TO  SOMEONE WHO WILL PRESERVE IT.
    THIS ORIGINAL SIGNED JOHN W. DUNN IS SEALED IN PLASTIC WITH A CARDBOARD BACKER BOARD. IT HAS A VERY SMALL AREA ON THE LEFT HAND BOTTOM  CORNER WHERE IT SHOWS A BLACK MARK NEAR THE SIGNATURE (SEE PICTURES). THIS COULD EASILY BE RESTORED.THE PIECE IS 28 X 22 INCHES. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK. THIS PIECE WILL BE SHIPPED WITH GREAT CARE AND FULLY INSURED.
