2696. (painting) John W. Hutchinson Jr. (1940-). HANDKERCHIEF SHOAL LIGHTSHIP NO. 4. c.1987. #547. This is an authentic, signed original water color on artist’s board by Chatham and Cape Ann’s own artist, John Hutchinson. This bright rendition measures 6 inches by 9 inches, framed to 14″ x 17″ and is signed in the bottom right hand corner by the artist. Light Vessel No. 4 was built in 1855 and served on Handkerchief Shoal at the entrance to Nantucket Sound from 1858 until 1916. “Hutch” has lived for years in Salem on Massachusetts’ North Shore and summers at a lovely spot near Chatham Lighthouse on the elbow of Cape Cod. He has become well known for his maritime and pilot boat views, as well as salt marsh and general coastal. Now nearing his sixties Hutch still paints with vengeance. Today John Hutchinson is one of Massachusetts’ best known artists his works have been sold all over the east. Wonderful, bright, in a mat and old frame but could use re-framing. (F). $248 net.
