The Old Warshield - Firelight?; [Untitled (Firelight)]

In 1922 Sharp held his annual Cincinnati exhibition at Traxel's New Art Galleries. One of the 60 works displayed there was an oil titled The Old Warshield - Firelight. This may be that work. Sharp's sales ledgers (Sharp Papers) indicate that he was vigorously selling similar firelight scenes during the early 1920s.
