Product code: Incredible 1940 Coastal Seascape Lighthouse store Oil Painting by Emanuel Cascos
A tremendous impressionist oil painting on canvas board. This piece depicts a Lighthouse on the edge of a tall promontory on the ocean. Really impressive brushwork, as well as a masterful blend of realism and impressionism. The painting is signed "E. Cascos" at lower right and dated 1940. On verso, there is an attribution from the artist, Emanuel Tascos, to his friend and pupil, as well as a date and place (Brooklyn, NY). An incredible piece. Amazingly, I have found almost nothing about the artist, apart from what looks to be a burial record (died in 1955). It is framed in a lovely carved midcentury wood frame. The painting is immaculate, except for a small hole punctured clean through at just left of center. I didn't notice it until closely examining the piece, so it is not very noticeable. Board is also slightly warped. Frame is in excellent store condition. Painting measures 17.75" wide x 13.75" high. Frame measures approximately 22.5" wide x 18.125" high.
