Painting, oil on wood, city, church, river, character

  

Painting, oil on panel, from the late 19th to early 20th century representing a small town, possibly Norman? With its houses by the water, a church in the background, and a person wearing a headdress on a bridge. The painting was purchased in Normandy, at an auction house in Alençon; the wooden panel had a fine crack that has been very well consolidated and is invisible when looking at the painting (photos 6, 7, and 8). An old oil painting in very good condition, sold with a recent gilded frame. Dimensions: panel: 24.5 by 34.5 cm, frame: 28.5 by 38.5 cm.
