Offered here (and on ebay), is this very fine oil on canvas painting by Sam Vinikoff, the "Artist of the Everglades," as he is known and described in an episode of the Antiques Roadshow on January 28, 2019.
This South Florida, Everglades painting displays a couple of White Egrets along the banks of a canal near the Fakahatchee Strand State Park. It measures 20 x 16 inches, is signed by the artist in the lower right corner, and is dated '76. The work is set into a very handsome (and heavy), wooden frame with a wide linen liner, and Gold leafed fillet measuring 26 x 22 inches.
CONDITION: The painting and canvas are perfect! The corners of the frame are not perfectly joined, and there are a few very tiny nicks to the Gold leafed edges.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Sam Vinikoff, known as "Artist of the Everglades", moved to Miami, Florida, with his family in 1957 after serving in the British Army during World War II. Vinikoff initially drew caricatures at Miami Beach hotels and weddings, until he discovered the Everglades, and devoted the last thirty years of his life to capturing the flora, fauna and inhabitants of the Florida wetlands. The majority of his paintings were executed in Big Cypress National Preserve. Accordingly, the Preserve's rangers frequently took him into the swamps in the morning to paint and picked him up in the evening. Vinikoff also painted in the Fakahatchee Strand and Everglades National Park.
