ABOUT THE PAINTING: Original impressionist oil painting on canvas board titled 'Sun & Snow' and signed by the artist in the lower left corner. The title appears written in pencil on reverse. This piece measures 16" x 18", framed in what appears to be an original wormwood frame, measuring 19" x 21". There is a bit of damage to the frame (lower right) where a thin slice is missing. (See photo). Undated, based on review of other works by the artist, the painting is likely from the 1930's or 1940's.
