Auguste Paul Charles Anastasi (1820–1889)

River landscape
inscribed indistinctly with title on the Anastasi studio sale label and with remnants of a red wax seal to the stretcher
oil on canvas
24 x 36cm



Provenance:
The artist’s studio sale, Duran-Ruel, 3-8 March 1873, no. 1(69?)



The painting is executed in oil on a fine weave canvas support which has been reinforced around the edges with additional strips of linen. There are a few small undulations to the canvas but overall the picture is in plane with adequate tension. The paint layers are stable. Areas of overpaint are well matched to the original. The varnish is slightly yellowed but even and semi-glossy.
