This is the first Devoe painting I have seen with birds in the background as well as the foreground - plus, the view is farther back than most. This one was listed on etsy.com but is marked "Sold". No indication of the size, or sale price.
The frame on this one looks very similar to the original frame on my large Devoe painting. The frame originally held mirrors in the flat area surrounding the painting, but over time the mirror pieces broke or were removed.
I have two foil on board floral paintings. I ran across this on Esty while trying to research them. The signatures on the paintings I have do not look the same and do not seem to match the one on this picture. I did come across this obit and I suppose it could be possible that Edna is M. Devoe. She was referred to as a talented painter.
