Attributed to V. D. n., Landscape with Fortified Tower, Oil on Board - A small-scale decorative landscape painting executed in oil on board. The composition depicts a romanticised view of a fortified tower or keep situated by a body of water, flanked by mature trees. The work exhibits prominent, textured brushwork with notable impasto highlights in the clouds and foliage. The painting is inscribed with a signature in the lower right quadrant, appearing to read V D n followed by a cursive flourish. The artwork is housed in an octagonal dark-stained wood frame featuring a mustard-yellow velvet-textured slip and a gold-toned rope-twist oval inner border. The verso is covered in red flocked paper with a small metal hanging loop at the top. 20 cm x 20 cm.
