Charles Codman atribution of this lovely sunset landscape probably by Portland, Maine artist Charles Codman (b. 1800, d.1842). Codman’s work is represented in several US museums (see artist biography section on my gallery home page) and most recently the Portland Museum of art mounted a retrospective in 2003 of Codman’s work which is described on their web site.

The back has a very old retail seller’s label from Portland, Maine.
