A seascape painting signed by K.F. (1871). Oil on Canvas. 10x14". Frame Size 17x20”.

This pastoral scene depicts sheep in a mountainous area, causing me to believe that it may be European in origin. The artist has captured 6 sheep peacefully grazing on grass, with no shepherd seen.

The linen on canvas is mounted on board, and framed under glass in what I believe is a refurbished frame which is generally in excellent condition. The painting is signed lower left, illegibly,...

Theorems were more often stenciled on velvet. The style is of the mid-19th century. It could be either American or English. The frame is a good one of that period. The painting was almost certainly in an oval frame originally and the slight shadow around it is evidence of that frame. The sight size is 12 3/8 x 15 ½ inches with the ...
