Antique Louis K. Harlow Landscape Lithograph - Pastoral Sunset Cottage Scene - Vintage Gold Gilt Frame

Capture the serene beauty of a bygone era with this antique landscape lithograph by the noted American artist Louis Kinney Harlow (1850–1913). Known for his atmospheric New England and rural watercolors, this piece features a moody and evocative pastoral scene at sunset (or perhaps sunrise). The composition draws the eye across a quiet stream or marshland toward a rustic cottage nestled on a hill, with a church spire faintly visible in the distance and a flock of birds taking flight against a warming sky. The artwork captures the soft, diffused light typical of Harlow’s best work, rendering the countryside in earthy browns, muted greens, and soft peach tones.

The print is housed in a vintage wood frame with a gilt gold finish that features a subtle, textured pattern, adding to its antique charm. The artwork is matted in a neutral grey-green tone that complements the landscape’s palette.
