Description :
Charming original watercolor painting of the Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia, signed and dated Paul Rycewold ’79. The composition captures the iconic Fairmont Empress façade with its steep gables and turrets, framed by hanging flower baskets and a horse‑drawn carriage in the foreground. Executed in soft washes of gray, green, and rose tones, the piece evokes the timeless elegance of Victoria’s harbor district and the city’s heritage charm. The artist’s attention to architectural detail and atmospheric light gives the work a nostalgic, postcard‑like quality. Presented under glass in a matte‑finished frame with gold trim, ready for display. A lovely representation of one of Canada’s most celebrated landmarks.
Dimensions : 15 in W x 18 in H
