SOLD A French framed farmyard painting from the early 19th century, with roosters and chickens, signed Alfred de Knyff, (1819-1885).

Set inside a carved giltwood frame, this French early 19th century painting, signed lower left, will enliven any wall beautifully, perhaps hung above a commode, console table or side table.
