    Description

    Fine vintage / mid century original oil painting of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem done by the
    well-known Rittenhouse Square artist Ruth McCann, American (1913-2013)
    The Wailing Wall or Western Wall, known in Islam as the Buraq Wall, is an ancient limestone wall in the Old City of Jerusalem. It is a relatively small segment of a far longer ancient retaining wall, known also in its entirety as the "Western Wall".
    It is signed Ruthe and has an inscription on the back that reads Wailing Wall Jerusalem.
    Mc Cann was in many solo and juried shows.
    Her interest in art started as a child. After graduating from Penn State she attended classes at the Students Art League in New York City. She traveled abroad and eventually arrived in Philadelphia. She continued studying art at the Academy of Fine Arts and the Fleisher Art Memorial. She also has private lessons. She worked with various mediums.
    Her studio was at 2025 Rittenhouse St in Philadelphia.
    The painting, done in impression style, has vibrant colors and is in great condition. The frame does have some scratches however.
    The  frame's dimensions are approx.  21 5/8 x 27".
    The actual painting's dimensions 19 5/8" x 25 1/2".
