U_Z, please announce its version under the title of this forum threads .

Art for " piers ".

Let's say you live in the 1890s - 1900s and a holder of restricted cash and artistic taste , and you have to beat more often swap apartments .
You go to a " finished furniture store " and get it in line with the size of the room.
You are "empty piers " (between the windows, doors , etc.) and you pick up painting (mostly engravings , etc.) for specific sizes .
To this end, specialty stores , and sometimes in the same furniture you buy ingenious , craft painting , performed in various formats (horizontal, vertical , narrow , wide, small, large , etc.) with win-win stories (forest landscape, seascape , still life or engraving (most heliogravure ) known works ).
So it was acquired by the first customers your work .

Yes.
In my opinion, read "Reneault".
Pictures with a signature have been discussed at the forum.
Reneault - this is akin to gang Ducommun or Collianos, but only slightly lower level.
Dates from the late XIX - early XX century.

I fully agree with the respected Amateur-th.

and sometimes in the same furniture

Then at furniture stores even have teams of artists who worked for the piers pictures.

Often bought a pair of vertical landscapes.

Thank you all!
"Reneault".
Output before the master - or rather the mistress.
