Harbor Traffic, 1874

This is an original oil on canvas painting, signed and dated lower right, Possibly the work of Francis A. Silva ?  The signature is a bit obscure... This painting of Harbor Traffic is dated 1874.  The painting measures 12X20 inches. We are selling this work as 19th century American School in the style of Silva... Our price reflects our uncertainty about the authorship of this work..... Nicely framed in a period gilt frame.  Fine detail and color, this is an outstanding work of art.
