Description
Impressive Remington-Inspired Hand-Painted Lamp. Words will not likely do this Western-theme glass lamp justice. It is quite impressive. It consists of a 17" cylindrical base with slightly bulging sides, an 11" globe and a 14" clear glass chimney. Fully assembled, it stands an imposing 31". The brass base is marked "F G CO 294". The globe rests on a brass reservoir and burner, but the piece has been electrified. The base and globe have been hand-painted with Western subjects which are very much in the style of Frederick Remington. The base has a mounted soldier pointing his rifle at a fleeing figure on horseback. The other side has a bust portrait of a rugged-appearing soldier. The globe depicts three soldiers and a scout who have dismounted and are defending themselves against an Indian attack. One of the soldiers appears to be wounded and is using his horse as a shield. The other side of the globe shows a bearded soldier with a white hat who gives all appearances of being a veteran of the Confederate army. We are unsure of the age, but suspect it may date from the 1880-1900 period. Anyone who is enamored with tales of the West is sure to love it!Auction Info
