<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 147710, member: 56"]I like the painting, But there's something to the style that doesn't say 18thC to me. Looks like the frame is likely original to it, and that's post industrial revolution. I'm having a difficult time putting a finger on it. I do suspect a tourist view - a collection of stereotypical imagery: water cascading down mountains, rustic chalet, peasants in local costume. I find that very central tree rather odd; it so divides the picture in two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
