A serene turn-of-the-century woodland scene: dappled light through summer trees, a quiet bend in the river dotted with lily pads, and soft reflections worked in a tonal, naturalistic hand. Signed lower left “E. Schneider, ’10” and presented in its handsome gilt wood frame with beaded inner slip—ready to hang and perfect for an old-money study, cottagecore reading nook, or gallery wall.
Condition is good and decorative. The paint surface is stable with a clear, aged varnish and a few tiny specks from age. The vintage frame shows honest wear, small rubs and flakes to the gilding at edges and corners, and losses to the old backing paper. The hanging cord is present; as with any older cord, replace to taste if you prefer. Displays beautifully.
Overall size (including frame): 75 x 65 cm (approx. 29.5" x 25.6"). Medium: oil on board. Signed and dated at lower left.
