Description
Antique oil on canvas painting by George Loring Brown, American, 1814 to 1889. The painting depicts a vista featuring sunset over Mount Vesuvius with the city of Napoli in the foreground, dated circa the 1870s. The canvas has been relined and wax line. Housed in a gilt wood and gesso frame with a carved decor, bearing an attached metal bar inscribed with the name of the artist and the title of the painting. Provenance: Shapiro Auctions, May 14, 2022, lot 384. George Loring Brown was an American landscape painter. He was born in Boston and first studied wood engraving under Alonzo Hartwell and worked as an illustrator. He studied painting with Washington Allston, but soon went to Europe, residing principally in Italy for years. Brown spent much of his life abroad, and the motives of his pictures are usually Italian, and there is nothing specifically American about them either in treatment or sentiment. One of a kind artwork. Antique American Fine Art For Collectors.
