A well executed, architectural study in watercolour showing a view of the Hôtel de Ville in the town of Loches in the Loire valley. The artist has captured the harsh shadows, thrown by bright sunlight, over the ornate masonry with great skill.
The artist has signed and inscribed to the lower right corner. The painting has been presented in a gilt effect frame with glazing and an off-white card mount.
On wove.The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration. There is some heavy foxing in the upper section of the painting. The frame has tarnishing and surface scuffing as well as small losses to three corners.
