Dutch School, circa 1870
A Javanese landscape with a horseman and volcano beyond
with inscription 'A. Calame' (lower right), stamped with Calame's seal and indistinctly titled on an old label on the stretcher
oil on canvas
12 x 17 ¼in. (30.4 x 43.8cm.)

Specialist note

The inscription probably indicates ownership (along with Calame's seal on the stretcher) rather than authorship. This is presumably Jean-Baptiste-Arthur Calame (1843-1919), the artist and son of the Swiss landscape painter Alexandre Calame (1810-1864). Neither of the Calames travelled to Indonesia.
