Mount Carmel. Oil on canvas. Titled "Mount Carmel". Unsigned.
The painting portrays Mount Carmel with a monastery on its top and a few houses at its foot, viewed from the sea. A sail boat is seen in the sea with stormy waves and some birds on the left. The gloomy atmosphere of the painting is reached through the color palette of brown, grey and white shades.
On the reverse of the canvas appears an ink stamp "Reeves & Sons/Manufacturers" – a company which produced and supplied art supplies and was active in London starting in 1766. Judging by the company name printed on the canvas it is possible to date the painting between the years 1830-1890. 18X15.5 cm. Framed 29X37 cm. Good condition. Frame is flaking.
