San Francisco, Lombard Street by Thomas Kinkade

This item is a framed canvas lithograph featuring the artwork 'San Francisco, Lombard Street' by the renowned 'Painter of Light,' Thomas Kinkade. The piece captures a sweeping, romanticized view of one of San Francisco's most iconic landmarks during the golden hour, characterized by a soft, warm glow emanating from windows and streetlamps. The composition is rich with pastel hues of pink, orange, and blue in the twilight sky, contrasting with the detailed greenery and colorful floral arrangements lining the winding brick road. Visible elements include vintage-style cars and a motorcycle navigating the curves of the hill, with the San Francisco Bay and cityscape receding into a misty, illuminated background. The canvas displays a textured surface typical of Kinkade's mass-produced prints, often featuring hand-applied highlight strokes known as 'hand-accenting' to enhance luminosity. It is housed in an ornate, multi-tiered gold-toned frame with a cream-colored inner liner, adding to its traditional aesthetic. While a digital signature is likely present in the lower corner (though obscured by the frame in this view), this specific example appears to be in excellent condition with no visible fading, tears, or significant damage to the frame's gilding. The style is representative of late 20th to early 21st-century contemporary American realism.
