An original watercolor painting by Alaskan artist Byron Birdsall (1937-2016). The painting features a red and white floatplane, likely a Cessna 180, in the foreground against the backdrop of dark spruce trees and a snow-capped mountain partially bathed in the half-light of the rising sun. Affixed to the back of the painting is a detailed biography of the artist, apparently associated with a different artwork entitled "Mother of God Hodgegetria". Matted in a neutral tone and housed in a wooden frame measuring approximately 20.5" x 29" overall and a sight view of 11.25" x 19.75".
