Reproduction Print of 'Donkey Rides on the Beach' by Isaac Israëls

This item is a framed landscape-oriented pictorial work featuring a beach scene with figures. The composition depicts three small children—appearing to be girls dressed in white frocks and sun hats—riding donkeys along a seashore, accompanied by a male figure, likely a donkey driver, walking alongside. The color palette is dominated by cool tones including cerulean blues, muted greys, and stark whites, characteristic of Impressionist coastal scenes. The artwork is housed in a decorative, gilded 'Louis' style wood or composite frame, which features ornate scrolling corner flourishes (acanthus leaf motifs) and a beaded inner border. Based on the brushwork and subject matter, this is a reproduction of the famous work by Dutch Impressionist Isaac Israëls (1865–1934). The medium appears to be a printed canvas or a high-quality lithographic print rather than an original oil painting, as the surface lacks the heavy impasto and unique textural highlights typical of Israëls' fast, 'alla prima' technique. The frame shows minor surface dust but appears structurally sound with no significant chips to the gilding. This style of reproduction was popular throughout the mid-to-late 20th century for residential decor.
