Got this painting left to me.
No idea who painted it, or where the landscape is, other than that it is Scottish.

Looks like the signiture Is maybe "M. MacDonald" with a year of 1902?

Thanks, I will do.

I doubt it will be worth anything, and wouldn't sell it if it was. I just like the scene, and wanted to know a little more about it.

The label on the back of the frame is quite nice, I love the phone number of the gallery (top left)...

Thanks for the info guys!
I guess it's likely just a novices work?

Tempted to remove it from the frame, and see if there's anything on the back of it.

Really no idea about it, or where to ask. The frame is quite badly damaged too.

TBH I'm not even sure if the signature is M MacDonald? It's quite difficult to read.

As for the forum, wasn't sure where else to put it - is there a specific art/paintings sub section?
