Item Description

This is a vintage signed wood block print by listed artist Fannie Mennen
Fannie Mennen (1903-1995) was an artist working in the Appalachian region and was well know for her Plum Nelly Clothes Line Art Shows at her home in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. This piece is titled "Persian Horse" and is signed in the lower right hand corner. It's in an older brown wood matted frame that does show signs of wear.

The "Plum Nelly" Tradition began in 1947 at an outdoor art show held at Fannie Mennen’s house on the back of Lookout Mountain, Georgia. Ms. Mennen’s property had years earlier been named Plum Nelly when her brother-in-law, Louis Marks, after driving, what to him seemed a long way from Chattanooga, remarked, “Fannie, your place is plum out of Tennessee and nearly out of Georgia.” Only 300 people attended that first show in the Plum Nelly Woods, but within a few years, the Plum Nelly show had grown to be a bona fide event, attracting as many as 20,000 Southeastern art lovers in a single October weekend.
