        Est: $1,000 - $2,000

        TOWN SCENE WITH FUNERAL PROCESSION BY TELLA KITCHEN (OHIO, 1902-1988). Oil on canvas, signed lower right. Tentatively titled Life Goes On, this painting shows busy town life in Adelphi, Ohio, while a horse drawn funeral procession passes through the main street and along many town landmarks. Painted specifically for the deceased's family, the hearse has stopped in front of the general store run by one of Kitchen family. 22"h. 30"w., in a frame, 25"h. 33"w. Tella Kitchen (1902-1988) was born in Ohio, raised in Indiana, and then returned to Ohio when she married Nolan Kitchen in 1920. When Nolan died during his time in office as mayor of Adelphi, Tella finished his term. Her folksy paintings depict a bygone era, with all the hustle and bustle of small-town life. Robert Bishop, in his Folk Painters of America, asserts that Kitchen is one of the very few naive American artists whose pictures compare favorably to the homespun charm of those painted by Mary Robertson "Grandma" Moses.
