I am pleased to be selling this striking vintage/antique oil painting advertisement for Dufour Bolting Cloth (a square mesh fabric) -- which was invented in the 1830's to sieve/mill flour. As you can see, this colorful painting is signed by the artist, William Kane, in the lower left hand corner and is very nicely framed and matted. I believe the painting likely dates to the late 19th/early 20th century. The painting itself measures approximately 16" by 13," while the frame measures approximately 23" by 20." At some point, the painting was lined. While it does have some minor soiling and in-painting, it is still a very well done and unusual piece that would appeal to collectors of both art and advertising. Thanks for looking.
