Antique Early 1800's Oil Painting Genre Farm Scene in the Original Frame & Family Provenance Written on Backing Paper. Frame measures 11" x 13 3/4"; the art visible from the front is 6 3/4" x 9 1/2" but it is probably 8" x 10" in total. Depicts farmer by farmhouse with table and baskets filled with fruit & vegetables and his horse or burro donkey on the left in a landscape setting. It is an oil on board painting. Painting is very good with no damage noted. The very old original... frame has significant chipping to the gesso but is otherwise solid and sturdy. My 12 photos will show this early painting in detail. Frame could very easily be restored with some wood putty and gold paint. A nice little European folk art oil painting, probably French.
