Antique Oil Painting, Signed E. Picard, 1877 — Pastoral River Landscape

Antique oil on canvas, signed "E. Picard" and dated 1877,

depicting a pastoral river landscape with a stone bridge, a shepherd with his dog, and grazing goats. The canvas bears the stamp of a Parisian art supplier on the reverse, consistent with the period. The artist could not be further identified through available records — this is offered as a charming, decorative 19th-century genre painting rather than an attributed work by a documented name.

Please note the gilt frame shows significant age-related damage (losses to the gesso, cracks, chipped corners, visible in the detail photos) and is sold as-is.
