Unsigned 19th century French oil painting, a fabulous interior done in an Impressionist's manner. This painting is ready to frame, or to hang just as it is. The kind of interior every antique lover is drawn to, and the artist's hand and composition is particularly appealing. Thick impasto brush strokes suggesting all the detail your eye fills in. Warm palette to match well with the warm and inviting interior. The painting's outer measurements are 18" x 15". Still on the old original stretcher frame and ready to frame, nicely stretched still.
Very good to excellent condition, the painting stops just shy of the outer edge of canvas, making it fresh and appealing or ready for your choice of frame. I've got this one on my dining room wall just now without frame, just as it is and it is gorgeous. I have not found any artist's signature, which disappoints me only a little. The artist's hand and talent speaks for itself on this one. Sorry for slight glare. I've tried to light it but that subjects it to some glare. It's much nicer in person. One tiny hole in canvas, I've marked it on the backside. Very small. A tiny patch/touch up is all it needs. If I find time, I'll do it. The canvas is otherwise in very nice condition.
