Soft Landscape with Trees and Ruins, Antique Oil on Linen Painting hammered I think she's quite angelicNot a great masterpiece, but there is a very lovely softness and atmospheric ness (and an Arts & Crafts sort of feeling, too) about this oil on linen painting, which kept me returning to it when recently roaming around an antique shop in Maine, and compelled me to walk out the door with it!
