Geographically considered part of the Kindom of Denmark, the structure dates to the Viking age and was apparently owned by the Paturssons, a family that was distinctly of the Faroese culture.
The frame is a simple wooden vintage brown and moss green. The medium is oil on board, signed by the artist in the lower right corner.
The board measures 20"x16", framed dimensions noted below.
