This French oil on canvas painting from the 1800s depicts a landscape with seemingly out-of-place classical architecture at dusk. The artist did a wonderful job of capturing the time of day, as noted by the darker tones in the surrounding trees and cloudy sky. In the manner of Hubert Robert, who was an 18th century French landscape painter who was known for his depictions of architectural fantasies (known as cappricio).
CONDITION: Good antique condition. Very light buildup to the canvas, which has been professionally cleaned. No frame, but the canvas is over a wood stretcher. Minor wear to edges of canvas, which will not be seen if framed.
