Description: Unusual subject for listed artist Joseph Bennett. Impressive painting of the lights in San Francisco. Would date this painting to the late 1930's. This piece is an oil on canvas, image size 16" x 20". Housed in a good period wood frame, which shows off the painting quite well. No issues found with either painting and frame. A good addition to your San Francisco/California collection.
