New Orleans Storefront with Reflections

This item is an original painting by Brian Cobble, titled 'New Orleans Storefront with Reflections'. It has dimensions of 36x28 inches. The painting depicts a realistic, detailed scene of a storefront window in what appears to be a historic New Orleans setting, given the architectural style reflected in the glass. The primary subject is the large display window of a shop, likely an antique or curiosity shop, featuring a seated mannequin with long, wavy red hair wearing a patterned dress. Below the mannequin, various colorful items, possibly decorative masks or small sculptures, are visible. The window itself acts as a complex reflective surface, capturing the street scene opposite the storefront. Reflected elements include older, multi-story buildings with intricate ironwork or balconies, a blue car, and what appears to be a woman with dark hair seen in profile, looking into the window. The exterior of the storefront building itself is depicted with dark grey, brick-like pilasters and light-colored window frames. To the right of the storefront, a red building with light-colored doors and a street lamp is visible, contributing to the impression of an urban environment. The painting exhibits a high degree of realism and detailed brushwork, characteristic of contemporary realism or photorealism. The illusion of depth and reflection is skillfully rendered, showcasing the artist's mastery of light and shadow, and creating a sense of a layered visual experience. There are no visible condition issues such as cracks, chips, or major abrasions discernible from the image quality, suggesting the painting is in good condition. The overall craftsmanship suggests a high-quality art piece.
