    Hi all,
    I picked up this beautiful little painting the other day.
    It reminded me of some of the Kinkade Rose Gate paintings.
    Painting measures 8" x 10" frame 13" x 15"
    It is signed lower right "Benson" I was wondering if this could be just another factory painting? If not which one of the Hundreds of Benson's it could be by?
    The writing on the back is in Russian and was read to me by the young man at the store. the basics are just a birthday gift from several people.

    I LIKE the scene, although they sure didn't waste any quantity of paint when you can see that much canvas through it!! But hate the frame!! No date? But then all those staples tell a lot as to age!!! Brad's probably right.....

    It was all the appearance of a factory painting and one influenced by Thomas Kincaid.

    It was gifted in April of 2003. So would have been painted sometime before that.
    Thanks @verybrad I thought the same but better quality than most.

    This one's a classic "if you like it, hang it" painting. I'd say factory piece too.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It's securely stapled into the framing, isn't it!

    The two metal pieces attach it to the frame. no nails. I could change the frame easily.
