Lake Winnipesaukee Samuel W Griggs

He was the Thomas Kincaid of his age. I like his work, because it is "of the age", but I don't think his paintings have any geologic reference points, other than a general local view. His "Rattlesnake Island" mountain seems to have endured a couple million years of erosion. Would I pay a couple of grand for a painting that was painted by a guy, of Winnipesaukee, who died the year my grandfather was born? Yeah, probably. If I had the cash.
