Arthur J. Meadows (1843-1907)
Britishreturn

Born within a family of painters, Arthur Joseph Meadows may rightly be considered the leading member of this prodigious and prolific group. His father James Meadows, Sr. instilled in him a technical appreciation for accurate coastal views of Europe, and young Arthur set out to see and paint as many as he could find.

Traveling extensively throughout England, Holland and France, Meadows also took to the Mediterranean Ocean and the various sights and locales of Italy, Greece and the islands. He excelled in capturing local color and detail all within a soft, subtle palette that offers peaceful realism and emotional content to his artworks.

Meadows was very successful financially with his art in his lifetime and gifted works to many private individuals and other artists that he befriended. His upper society lifestyle enabled him to be quite active in early humanitarian efforts, and he was involved in the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society in the mid-Victorian Age.  footnote:information on artist located www.;vallejogallery.com/pics.php

I believe this is an Oriental wine barrel but am not sure of the origin or date or value.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

My grandmother was born in 1905 so the 1920's & 1930's would have been her heyday.  Just out of curiosity I would love to find any info pertaining to bottle as well as the value.

Thanks for your help!

It's a 1905 Gibson Mandolin all original. My Great Grandmother paid $27.50 for it in 1906 and I have the reciept. I've been told it is in better than mint condition. It plays and sounds incredible.
