A delightful late 19th Century gouache by the artist John Shapland (1865-1929), depicting the commune of Varenna in Lake Como, Italy. The delicate application of the medium accurately portays the ambience of the montainous landscape, while the considered use of fine details adds perspective and depth to the composition.
On wove laid to board. Signed and dated in the lower right hand corner with a further inscription on reverse.
The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some general discolouration. Overall in good condition.
