A beautiful pastoral watercolor on artist's board, this work is artist-signed by E. Kiechel. Most importantly, it is signed in the border by actor Gregory Peck, possibly a gift from the famed leading man. It reads: "To Jim Schendel - with best regards and every good wish - Gregory Peck." Measuring 20x15", there is a photo included with writing on the back stating that "Watercolor sketch from the film 'The Big Country' Autographed by Gregory Peck." The meaning is unclear, perhaps this watercolor was used in the 1958 movie, in which Peck starred. Comes with a signed letter from Peck's secretary stating "Enclosed is an original sketch made especially for one of the outdoor scenes of "The Big Country".
