#RP-7 - "Adirondack Frost Fish..." by Sherman F. Denton - 1902 Chromolithograph print - 9" x 12", framed - $20.00 This true-to-life chromolithograph print was part of a set published in 1902. Denton was a principal artist to the New York State Forest, Fish and Game Commission. A master of the art, his prints are becoming more and more scarce, and are avidly sought-after! The Adirondack Frost Fish is also known as a Round White Fish. This image is delicately colored, as with all chromolithographs, by successive applications of carefully registered stones, each applying its specific color... black, grey, blue, yellow, pink and red... each standing alone here, or blending with another there, to form the subtle shade differences that help to identify the unique tints of each species as they looked in life! The print resides behind glass in a good quality gilded frame. The print is in Good condition, with 3 closed tears and associated pressure creases at the right edge, to the right of the fish's tail. Though not noticeable from a distance, they are apparent upon closer inspection. Nearly all could be matted-out without covering the image, though we've had this hung for years as is, and never worried about it being obvious Otherwise the print is crisp, clean, and bright. The frame is in VeryGood condition, with a couple of tiny chips on the edge, and a few light scratches. These could be easily touched-up. Otherwise it's ready to hang.
