Lot 324: Charles Wellington Boyle (American/Louisiana,

Charles Wellington Boyle (American/Louisiana, 1861-1925), "Sugar Cane Field", 1885, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, Charleston Renaissance Gallery, Charleston, SC, label en verso, 10 1/8 in. x 16 1/8 in., attractively framed.
PLEASE NOTE: One of Boyle's early and major works, this realistically depicted 1885 scene portrays a south Louisiana sugar cane field with two black workers and a mule tilling. This quintessential southern panorama would have been exceedingly familiar to the Lewisburg, LA born artist.
