Oil on canvas, 21" by 15 3/4" (24" by 19 1/2" as framed), unsigned, the subject an Austrian, Swiss, or German village in deep snow on a brilliant sunny day.

On the stretcher someone has written "AUSTRIA (TIROL) cca 1950". Condition is good with just light rippling at upper left where the canvas wraps around or is in...
