Very fine original painting by Francois Diday (Swiss 1802-1877). Diday is well known in Switzerland and received significant recognition, both during and after his lifetime, for his landscape paintings. This painting is a gem. The painting is oil on hand hewn/finished wood panel. The landscape detail is quite pronounced and there are figures on the lower right of the work. It is a strong example of Diday's brushwork and skill as a landscape artist. It is signed on the panel, verso. The work is unframed. lower right of the work.

Painting is in good overall condition. Some minor loss to edges due to previous framing. Light grime, as expected. Fibrous residue, verso to panel.
