This offering? A rare and LARGE Colin V. Wheeler Original Oil on Canvas "Church At Woodbury"

On offer is an undated but circa late 1950s to 1960s Colin V Wheeler glorious oil on canvas. As mentioned above, this is a LARGE work measuring 68 cm by 55 cm (27 inches by 22 inches imperial) entitled "Church at Woodbury".

Woodbury is a small township 8km inland from Geraldine. The church is called St Thomas' Anglican Church. This work is personally signed "Colin V Wheeler" and carries on the back of the painting the original sales sticker from Wheeler's own studio at 151 Eden St Oamaru.

This painting is in pristine condition and hung for many years at the Old Mill House at Waianakarua just south of the artist's home town. It had virtually never left the province. We believe that this work, painted at Geraldine in South Canterbury, partially came to fruition because Wheeler was a contemporary with the famous Canterbury painter A A Deans.

The general price range for such works by Wheeler, as extracted from auction results records, average in the 5,000 to 10,000 dollar price range. These prices do not include buyer premiums.

Pick-up is available if payment by direct debit in advance has been made.
