Estate Find Big Painting Old!

Last for the art category. This looks really old. No signature.

 

Interesting. Not the work of a fully-trained artist. Wonder where that is.

I think at one point they were in California.

 

Certainly looks like California.

Santa Barbara Court House. Built in Spanish Colonial style in 1929. So your painting isn't terribly old.

Thanks Deb!

 

If you want to establish a date range, you can do so by comparing palm tree heights in your painting with those in old post cards.

Student work at best, never finished.

 

Thanks Antidiem.

 

Yeah, a bit ambitious but has its charm. We'll call it "folk art."

Debora beat me to it! I have a photo of the courthouse taken from about the same location. We visited it a couple of times when we were visiting my niece.
