I would estimate it dates circa 1880s or 1890s.
The overall frame measures 13 3/4 inches wide x 11 3/4 inches high (34.9 cm x 29.8 cm). The painting measures 10 inches wide x 8 inches high (25.4 cm x 20.3 cm).
This mill is sometimes referred to as a grist, grain or water mill. It uses the power of water to grind grain or even lumber.
The painting has a small reverse in...dentation in the top left corner. There’s a little bit of wear to the paint just to the right of that. There are some other very tiny scattered areas with wear to the painting finish. Otherwise, it appears to be in very good condition.
The frame has scattered dings and nicks to the finish. There is some wear to the lemon gold gilt liner.
The two go beautifully together.
The painting is not signed.
It weighs a touch under 2 pounds (904 g).
