Product description

Lot: Framed signed oil-on-canvas landscape by William Dobbelaar (signature visible lower right). This compact impasto piece shows thick, textured brushwork and a cottage-in-woods scene mounted inside a decorative white slip and a generous antique-style outer frame. The composition and heavy paint application are strongest visual features; close-up images show the three-dimensional impasto surface and a clear painted signature.

This painting suits collectors of signed small-format oils, owners seeking a rustic or country vignette for a hallway, study or office, or decorators who need a ready-to-hang framed artwork with character. Its compact visible image (approx. 30 x 30 cm) and substantial outer frame (overall 50 x 50 x 5 cm) make it an easy feature piece for rooms with warm, traditional interiors or for galleries offering affordable signed originals.

  • Included: single framed oil-on-canvas with inner white mount and decorative outer wooden frame (frame appears original to the artwork).
  • Condition: impasto surface with textured paint; close-ups show small areas of paint lift/flaking and surface dirt/speckling on the white mount; outer frame has scuffs, chips and wear consistent with age and use.
  • Measurements: overall framed 50 x 50 x 5 cm. Visible canvas/image approximately 30 x 30 cm (as measured at warehouse).
  • Signature/proof: signed on the front lower right — reads “William Dobbelaar” (visible in supplied images).
  • Working status: N/A — decorative artwork. No provenance labels or reverse/back photos supplied.
  • Known faults: small paint loss/flaking in places, speckling on the mount and scuffs/chips to the outer frame; impasto texture creates an uneven surface.
