A large and impressive oil on canvas by beloved American illustrator Haddon Sundblom titled “Moonlight and Roses.” An inspired and luminous, traditional southern Gone With the Wind inspired scene that was likely a commission for Maxwell House Coffee. Included in the assembled cast of characters is a self portrait of the artist himself. Framed in an ornate period gilt frame with a Louisville Kentucky verso framing label reading “Frank J. Bimmerle Picture Frames.”
