Information: This
painting of the Portage Bridge is based on a lithograph
found in the museum at Letchworth Park NY and a oil painting
found in the museum
at Colonial Williamsburg Virginia.
This
theorem is adaptation of the Portage Bridge created by artist
Nancy Rosier.
This painting is done on a cotton velveteen fabric, in oil,
with the use of a stencil. This process is called theorem
painting which is a true American Folk Art. Theorems were
very popular between 1810 & 1860.
The frame is gold but is also offered in a grained frames.
This
theorem is very special for Nancy & Bill Rosier since
this is where they got engaged many years ago.

Portage
Bridge Painting by American Folk Artist Nancy
Rosier Adaptation
of Oil Painting found at Colonial Williamsburg
This
theorem is an adaptation of a Portage
Bridge lithograph by Onken's Lithograph company, 1853,
painted by Ed Bayer. The museum at Letchworth
Park NY describes this lithograph as follows - One spring
day in 1858, a steam train slowly approached ahuge bridge
six miles from the town of Nunda. Spanning the gorge between
Wyoming & Livingston counties, the wooden spider web
appeared suspended in air, 234 feet above the Genesee River.
The train slowed down for the bridge and Letchworth hopped
off to explore the gorge for the first time. This Lithograph
print shows the bridge before it burned in 1875.
