New Orleans Window Scene Painting by Brian Cobble

This item is an original painting by Brian Cobble, reportedly measuring 36x36 inches, as indicated by the additional context. The artwork depicts a vibrant street scene, likely in New Orleans given the architectural style and thematic elements. The central focus is a storefront window, possibly a shop or gallery, filled with various objects and a seated mannequin or figure with long red hair, wearing a patterned dress and yellow stockings. Below this figure, there are colorful items, including what appears to be bright blue and yellow objects. Inside the window, to the left, another figure, possibly a woman with dark hair and a red hat, is seen in profile, looking outwards. The window's reflection is prominent, showing buildings across the street with balconies, an ornate lamppost, and what appears to be a car. The architectural details include a building with a red facade and white trim on the right, and more complex structures on the left reflecting in the glass. The foreground features a detailed street with a sidewalk. The predominant colors are rich blues, deep reds, soft yellows, and various earth tones in the buildings and reflections. The style appears to be a form of realism with meticulous attention to detail, capturing light and shadow effectively to create depth and atmosphere. The painting is framed in a simple, flat black frame, which appears to be in good condition. There are no visible condition issues such as major scratches, dents, or paint loss discernible from the provided images, though a close-up examination would be necessary for a full condition report. The craftsmanship indicates a skilled artist, with careful composition and color application, achieving a sense of narrative and place. The size suggests it is a significant piece of art, suitable for display in a prominent location.
