Mid 19th Century Original Oil Painting of Fishing on Scottish Loch in the Style of Alexander Nasmyth
Gorgeous 19th Century landscape painting of a Scottish loch with fisherman and castle ruins in the style of Alexander Nasmyth (Scottish, 1758 - 1840). This painting features the rough-hewned nature of Scotland's landscape while juxtaposing the peacefulness of a fisherman casting his line into the loch. Adding interest is the castle ruins on the cliff's edge with a sailboat beneath. There is something new to see with each viewing of this picture.
