Description: Vintage Christina Benham Original Indiana River Landscape Painting Small 3.875"H This gorgeous reduced size landscape oil or acrylic painting by Christina Benham will make an excellent addition to your collection. It features a small horizontal landscape scene in what appears to be oils and depicts an autumn fall Indiana river forest scene with tall trees displaying yellow & ochre tone foliage in front of a bluish green river & woods background. It is signed CB on the front and Christina Benham 1976 on the reverse. Will blend perfectly in collections containing Indiana Salon paintings, Midwestern landscapes, and other styles of American landscape paintings & prints. Please note that colors as shown in the listing photos may appear brighter/lighter than they are in person due to variations in how different device screens display colors...the yellows used in this painting are less lemon yellow and are more in the range of mustard, ochre, greenish-yellow, and brownish-yellow and are likely more dull looking in person than they appear on device screens due to the lighting required to capture textures & details. It does have wear so please read complete details below and review photos closely for condition. Thank you and enjoy!
