I also think it hanged many years in the smokers corner (snow looks a little yellow)The canvas and painting looked older than the frame to me. But then I noted some faded writing on the back of the canvas. A name (looks ‘amateur’ hand)and what looks like possible 1974? So is this painting and frame both from the 70’s? Amateur painting? Not sure of the possible date. Is that a “9” ?. What do you all think? The frame size 58x48cm. Thank you
