This 19th-century coastal landscape, signed by French painter C.-G. Amyot, captures the serene beauty of towering cliffs beside a calm sea, likely depicting the famous White Cliffs of Dover. The painting is framed in its original, richly detailed gilt frame, with the artist's name prominently displayed on the frame’s label. Amyot, known for his genre scenes and landscapes, exhibited his works in prestigious venues such as Burlington House in London and the Paris Salon.

This oil painting is dated to 1850, an active period in Amyot's career, and it was acquired from a distinguished Parisian art collector who served as a curator at the Louvre. Amyot's skillful brushwork and careful attention to light and texture make this landscape a stunning representation of 19th-century French art, perfect for collectors of maritime or natural scenes.
