Depicts figures in woods on riverbank and cottage on far bank. Size of frame: 15 x 13.5 inches. Size of canvas: 8 x 6 inches. Weight: 1.7 kg (allow 4.5 kg volumetric weight once packed). Condition commensurate with age - various superficial marks & scratches, some paint loss to canvas, loss of gilt to one side of inner frame and some knocks to and pieces missing from gesso frame but all part of its charm and character. Priced accordingly. This item is obviously delicate and the gesso frame fragile.
