Mountain Landscape Painting with Cabin by C. Summey

This item is an oil painting on canvas by an artist named C. Summey, depicting a serene mountain landscape scene. The painting features a prominent snow-capped mountain range in the background under a cloudy blue sky. In the mid-ground, a quaint cabin with an orange-brown roof and weathered walls is nestled by the edge of a still lake or large river. The foreground is dominated by lush green grass leading to the water, which reflects the sky and surrounding dark green pine trees. The artist's signature, 'C. Summey', is clearly visible in white cursive script in the bottom right corner of the painting. The brushstrokes suggest a wet-on-wet technique, possibly indicative of a landscape painting style popular in the mid to late 20th century, reminiscent of artists like Bob Ross. The colors are vibrant and rich, with deep blues for the water and sky, various shades of green for the foliage, and distinct whites and grays for the mountain snow. The painting is framed in a dark brown wooden frame with an inner raised, textured cream-colored linen or fabric liner, which provides a visual separation between the dark frame and the painting itself. The frame shows some minor wear consistent with its age, but the painting appears to be in good condition with no obvious tears, significant cracking, or discoloration. The overall quality of craftsmanship suggests a skilled amateur or professional artist. The style indicates it likely dates from the 1970s or 1980s.
