A good late 19th century glazed, gilt framed, oil painting entitled "View of the Village II" by (Carlton) Edwin Harris (1855-1906). The painting captures an idyllic country village scene, with four figures and a dog walking along the village street, with thatched houses to the left and a small church in the background. Well painted and capturing the rural idyll perfectly.
