Prometheus Antiques has dated this piece to the 1940s.
The work has been professionally cleaned and is wonderfully bright and fresh. The view is brilliantly composed with a canal to the foreground, a Venetian house centre with stunning flowers blooming everywhere, and in the background can be seen the dome of Santa Marie della Salute. The painting is signed to the lower left ‘M.H.Richardson’ and this is probably Marjorie Richardson who exhibited at the Royal Academy and was working C.1937-1940. The work is framed in a wonderful period gilt frame which is in excellent untouched condition with all original gilding. The whole has a great look and is ready to hang. C.1940.
Overall sizes in inches including frame: 16 ¼ by 24
