Description from the seller

Although it is not possible to identify the author with certainty and in the absence of a visible signature, given the compositional and chromatic analogies with the famous watercolors of masters of picturesque architecture and of the Northern European vedutists of the 19th century, it is believed possible to attribute it to the English artist Samuel Prout.
Samuel Prout (1783–1852) was one of the most celebrated masters of the English Watercolor School and is internationally renowned for his paintings of historic architectures and European urban views.
The work depicts a market scene in a medieval city street.
Dimensions: 33x23 cm unframed, 51x41 cm with frame.
This is probably an era hand-watercolored lithograph.
The work, with original gold passe-partout and gold frame, has been mounted by the Ditta W.M. Dibben, 104 Poole Road, Westbourne Bournemouth.
The original label on the back, “WM Dibben, 104 Poole Road, Westbourne, Bournemouth – Practical Frame Maker, Gilder & Picture Dealer”, qualifies the work as a Victorian or Edwardian antique item.
