Karl Von Weidhofer (1920-2001) painted realistic landscapes in California
and sold well for many years. I've seen very few of this size. It is on masonite
measuring 24 by 36 and housed in a newer frame that is offered as is.

Below is from an older listing for one of his works re; his tragic life story.
 
"Karl Weidhofer was born in East Prussia, Germany on June 8, 1920. Weidhofer was in the German army when captured by the Russians during WWII. While imprisoned for four years, he was taught to paint by a fellow prisoner. After the war he was reunited with his family in Bavaria. He married and in 1954 moved to southern California. For many years he worked as a lab technician for Pomona Tile Company while painting in his leisure. In 1968 he became a full-time artist and began exhibiting his paintings in art shows held in malls and parks in southern California and the Southwest. Weidhofer died at his home in Pine Grove, CA on Nov. 3, 2001. Best known for his desert landscapes, some of his works are signed Karl von Weidhofer."
