This is a signed numbered painting #193 by Violet Parkhurst that was inherited from my parents. There is a newspaper article that is attached to the back of the painting which is the picture of the painting that says "A lone, gnarled cypress overlooks the sea along the 17-mile scenic drive between Carmel and Monterey.
Dimensions
Approximately 36" x 24" I would have to get actual measurements
