A masterful oil painting depicting a view of a riverside wooded park in a beautiful sunny day at the early fall season. A figure seated on a blue bench with a bridge behind, a couple walking down the pathway with city buildings in the background. This piece is an excellent example of the works produced during that time with use of beautiful colors and layers of paint, giving this work such a stunning richness. Also the way he uses flecks of light dashed onto the clouds to emulate light, creates a joy for the viewer to experience. This work is signed by the artist lower right and comes housed in a wonderful giltwood ornate gold tone frame with linen liner and hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed.
Condition: With ordinary wear from age, otherwise, this painting and its frame are in excellent condition for the time period.
