This is a charming painting to add to someone’s collection of 19th and early 20th century landscapes.
This turn of the last century painting has identification on the back but according to the information available about the artist, the dates don’t correspond to the findings. This just may be misinformation given to the purchaser who first bought the painting in 1910.
One other thing is that this piece isn’t signed which is suspect as Murphy signed his work in either the lower left or right corner of his paintings. There is no signature on the reverse either.
The painting is definitely in the style of Murphy who was a self taught artist and a member of the National Academy of Design and Watercolor Society.
Murphy, American 1853-1921, is known for his seasonal atmospheric landscape paintings. To find out more about him visit his Wikipedia page.
Condition of the painting is very good. The frame is in very good condition as well.
Sold as is. All sales are final.
Dimensions: 18” by 14.5” framed / 14.625” by 11.375” showing
