Hi,

This is probably an impossible request but i hope someone can help me. Probably about 5 or 6 years ago my wife and i saw a reproduction of a painting in a shop window while traveling. The original was (and i can only vaguely remember it) probably oil, of a couple standing close together (their backs turned to the viewer) looking out over a city at night (or dusk), portrait format, very romantic, overall dark hues.

I've googled all possible combinations but to no avail. I know the description is extremly vague but that is all i have.

My wife hinted at the time that she liked it and instead of just walkin in and buying it i now have to be reminded of it year after year and it is frankly driving me nuts

Thanks,
Riaan

Where were you when you saw it?

I'm pretty sure however that the original was done somewhere in europe - it had that feel to it.

You might want to look at Jack Vettriano. He does work similar to what I think you're describing.

this couple doesn´t look out over a city but your description certainly evokes some paintings of Caspar David Friedrich:
