In the bottom left hand corner its signed, PYLE, and 1905. I recently began to do reseach on it, and found out that the original is in the Delaware art museum's collection. Normally my investigation would have ended there, BUT, I noticed a name on the back of the frame - C.W Wyeth. I know of the Wyeth family, but have never heard of C.W. I'm sure that Pyle was in St. Paul around the time of 1905, Painting the state capital mural. My thought is that one of Pyle's students painted it. But, who knows. Any info would be appreciated.

Amazing painters/illustrators with profoundly new approaches to the trade. I'll will definitely be researching more on these two, as well a studying their styles & techniques in a more in depth manner. I just recently found out about Howard Pyle & his star pupil NC Wyeth.

Thanks to this delightful post, I am enlightened about his profound influence on so many great American artists.

Strangely enough, I discovered Pyle through a book about Norman Rockwell; who, although he seems reviled nowadays for being "kitschy", I thought was a great illustrator as well.
