Leander Allen Plummer II (New Bedford, Massachusetts, 1857-1914) Jumping Trout. Unsigned. Carved and stained wood panel "relief painting" with integral frame, 16 3/4 x 23 in. overall. Condition: Loss to tail. Note: Leander Plummer was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts. He was trained in Paris but returned to the United States to paint the wildlife he observed as a fisherman and sportsman in the New Bedford area. Eventually he experimented with woodcarving and found he had a great aptitude for detailed naturalistic sculpture; he combined his painting and woodcarving skills in creating "relief paintings," his words for deeply carved wood reliefs that he stained with pigments he devised to create a lifelike appearance. Plummer's panels became popular among fishermen and sportsmen.
