Antique Oil on Canvas Landscape Painting follower of Alfred Pollentine

About the Item

This is a truly splendid antique oil on canvas painting featuring a continental mountainous lakeside scene with a palace, by a follower of the celebrated British artist Alfred Pollentine (1836-1890), and dating from the last quarter of the 19th century. This astonishing landscape painting depicts a magnificent palace overlooking a lake with picturesque boats against mountains in the background. The way the artist has portrayed the sky and the sea is overwhelming, the soft warm light of the sunrise candidly radiates over the gentle ripples of the water. The warm colors together with the composition, the palace on the left hand foreground and the mountains in the distance on both sides, create a symmetrical and balanced scene which conveys a sense of serenity and peace. It is housed in it's magnificent original giltwood frame which adds extra splendour to this remarkable work of art. Add this splendid antique painting to a very special wall in your home.
