Winter Scene Of The Nannyshire Covered Bridge By Bonnie Ripple Fisher Appraisal

Winter Scene of the Nannyshire Covered Bridge by Bonnie Ripple Fisher

This item is a framed landscape print or painting depicting a pastoral winter scene of a covered bridge, identified by a sign above the portal as the 'Nannyshire Bridge'. The composition features a vibrant red-sided covered bridge with a snow-dusted gabled roof as the central focal point. The bridge is situated amidst a dense, leafless forest of grey and white trees, suggesting a mid-winter setting. The ground is covered in a thick layer of snow, with a tire-tracked path leading towards the dark interior of the bridge. In the foreground, a rustic wooden split-rail fence is visible on the right, with a small red cardinal perched atop it, providing a pop of color that echoes the bridge's siding. The artwork is signed 'Bonnie Ripple Fisher' in the lower right corner. The piece is housed in a contemporary dark brown wooden frame with a black inner lip. The overall style is reminiscent of late 20th-century Americana folk art, characterized by its nostalgic theme and detailed, illustrative quality. The condition appears good with no immediate signs of fading, foxing, or moisture damage visible behind the frame. The stippling effect in the sky suggests it may be a high-quality lithograph or print on textured paper.
