This is a very nice oil on canvas painting. The colors are naturalistic yet vivid. The painting is of a run down castle that appears to have been forgotten. It is over run with vines and two of the towers appear to have crumbled either in battle or age. When I first saw this piece of art my eyes couldn?t leave the painting. I have a fond appreciation for paintings and I instantly took a liking to this one. The work is very academic as you can see but there is something very captivating about the piece. The frame is especially nice ? it is carved wood and gold gilded both water and oil base. It is very intricate and finely done. The frame and painting date form the late 19th century. This piece is inspiring! It appears to me that at one time the canvas was professionally cleaned and then they applied a thin covering of lacquer for protection (the surface is very shinny). The painting is unsigned as far as I can see. There is some writing on the back of the stretcher that is very hard to make out but it appears to be perhaps an address? Overall it measures 22 7/8? x 18? and the sight size is 16 5/8? x 11 ½?.
