<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 3947, member: 37"]I can't make out any signature at all from the photos. The style of the frame is consistent with the 1875 time frame. The painting itself is vaguely Hudson River School style but really looks more commercial. I would have thought the painting later than the 1875 date but if someone was emulating the Hudson River School style as a contemporary, it fits. Can't tell the material of the board. If rough sawn wood, it also fits the 1875 date. You might want to check to see if it is just a thin wood backing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
