DescriptionFranklin Booth is impossibly great, and I would argue that this is a strong contender for depicting the finest trees ever drawn. Big thanks to Steve Staszower for unearthing this gem and reaching out to give me an opportunity to acquire it. Nice size for a Booth (12 x 8 on a larger board). Not sure where it was published, but the title (the Old Road) is on the back.Social/Sharing |

Yeah, don’t ask. My kids don’t need that overrated college stuff anyway!

My pleasure, Ben. This piece is a wonderful example of Booth's mastery of landscape pen & ink, and I'm so happy it's found a loving home with you!

Your Booth collection is simply outstanding. It would have been easy enough for me to leave comments on ALL your Booth pieces, but there's just something about well done trees that I love so much. This is phenomenal.

So cool. Called the road (and it's there), but the trees are predominant.
