Original Oil on Canvas Signed F. Toro

Item Details

An original oil on canvas painting signed F. Toro to the bottom right hand corner. The artist has rendered an epic city on the water with an illuminated cathedral to top center, holding the rest of the town like a clergy. The most interesting thing about this painting is the quality of the paint. It would appear as if the canvas has been built up over time, varnished, and scraped and worked into a wild and highly visible cacophony of texture. This painting has an expressed tension between the levels of the town, clearly the importance of religion is being stressed. The painting is simply presented in a basic wooden frame with a subtle gold varnish.

Condition

Some mild wear to frame.
