Slightly larger in size than my other "End of the Fence" painting by Dolph, this one measures 3 1/4" square and 4 3/4"
overall. The frame has some chipping but it's original to the piece. Marie Dorothy Dolph (1884 - 1979) painted until she was
age 94, doing canvases of Wyoming ranches and landscapes, the Grand Tetons, Yellowstone, Mount Hood, Oregon sights,
deserts of California and wildlife including buffalo and wild horses. Dolph lived for a number of years outside of Casper
Wyoming near the famed Goose Egg Ranch with her husband Royal "Jay" Dolph. She would paint through the harsh
Wyoming winters and travel to Yellowstone National park to sell her creations to the tourists. As most of her works were
miniatures they were perfect to pack into a visitor's suitcase and now her works are appreciated by collectors around the
globe.  Dolph is listed in Dowdy's, Who's Who, Davenports etc., and is only one of two listed Wyoming women artists.

Wonderful, rare Ruth Joy Hopkins etch of the front facade of the University of Wyoming. There is some damage, the right
half of this piece is stained... please see the close-up photographs. This could be minimized by careful matting of the actual
inked area so that only a very small bit of stain would be seen on the lower right corner of the edifice. Overall measures 5"
x 4" Signed in pencil by the artist. Truly an iconic image. Gold colored metal frame.
