| Commentary: | Frank Schoonover and David Reinhardt, Jr. were fishermen and friends. Circa 1930, they struck up a deal in which Schoonover traded this painting for a collection of Reinhardt’s fishing poles and equipment. In 1967, Reinhardt sold the painting to his son, David Reinhardt III. When he died it was inherited by his wife, Jane, the current owner. |
