This is painted in a Barbizon-influenced landscape tradition and depicts a European rural landscape with a village church spire, trees, and a lone figure on a path.
The warm, brown-gold tonality and loose brushwork are typical of late 19th century
Noticeable age-related craquelure, surface grime, and some wear on the canvas, consistent with a genuinely old painting
Signed Van B at the bottom right and framing stamp on the reverse side
The painting is set in an elegant, heavily gilded frame with leaf motifs
Naturalistic landscapes painting
