Unsigned Watercolor H 3" x W 6" unframed H 8.5" x W 10.5" framed
This exquisite vintage Irish watercolor and ink painting by Samuel McCloy beautifully captures the serene, detailed architectural charm of Church in the Woods. The original art piece features delicate linework and an atmospheric, natural palette, elegantly presented in a deep mat and a classic, ornate gilt frame that maximizes its display appeal. Slight wear is apparent on the frame, which is what makes it delightfully vintage.
