painting on stretched canvas measures 22 by 28 inches (image only) and 26 by 32 inches framed. <P>The subject is a view of San Francisco Bay from a hillside vantage point, with old buildings in the foreground. <P>The view looks down on covered docks or wharfs with ships and the bridge in the background. <P>It is signed Helen Louise Conser in the lower left corner. <P>It is in outstanding condition overall. <P>It is painted in a loose Impressionist style which incorporates strong brush strokes and the use of a pallette knife. <P>This is one of two paintings by the artist that we are currently offering. <P>Although they are not an exact matching pair, they are similar in size, colors and subject matter.
