Washington DC City Sunset 1800's Large Oil Painting

This evening cityscape of Washington, DC as it appeared around the turn of the 19th century was painted in 2008 using the impasto technique of applying thick amounts of oil paint to the canvas. It will endure for many generations of enjoyment and will add to the ambiance of nearly any room of your home or place of business.

Size: 24 X 36 Inches - Stretched

It is being sold professionally stretched on a sturdy and rigid wooden supportive backing to make it ready to be mounted in the picture frame of your choosing. I have elected to sell in this form, as opposed to rolled and unbacked, because of the extremely high cost of properly stretching and mounting canvas oil paintings. A national chain of art stores recently quoted a price of over $100.00 to stretch a 36 by 24 inch canvas oil painting. The bottom line is that you are much better off paying perhaps $10.00 more for shipping your oil in ready – to – frame form than $100.00 to $150.00 to have it stretched and mounted later.

This is a genuine individual oil painting, not a print on canvas. It began life as a bare piece of canvas. Then, a talented young artist worked his magic by hand with brushes, oil paint on a palette, and a container of linseed oil. The result is a truly individual work of art, ready to frame, that you will be proud of and enjoy for many years.

You will find two images above. The first is the painting itself, and the second is a detailed close up of a small area that illustrates the brush strokes and the texture of the paint and canvas.
