19th-Century Danish School, River Landscape With Birch Trees

19th-Century Danish School, River Landscape With Birch TreesThis beautiful Danish school landscape painting depicts a wintery view with river and distant woodland. The gentle tints of a hidden sun enliven the crisp scenery. As a quiet light falls majestically through the branches of tall birch trees. You can almost feel the snow give way under boots. The silence only broken by a footstep and a crunch. The painting is monogrammed and dated (18)95. Its housed within a gilt frame. Please note that this painting
