Description
A very well executed mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas. This painting beautifully captures the essence of a peaceful village landscape through a modernist lens, reducing the scene to essential shapes and colours. The interplay of geometric forms, earthy tones, and textured brushwork creates a tranquil, structured composition that evokes a sense of timelessness and quiet beauty. The scene is dominated by white and beige buildings with terracotta roofs, arranged in a way that creates depth and perspective. The foreground features a stone wall and a small courtyard, leading the viewers eye toward the central structures. In the background, rolling green and blue mountains provide contrast and a sense of scale. The paint is applied with visible, textured brushstrokes, giving the scene a slightly rough, organic quality. The simplified shapes and slightly flattened perspective enhance the paintings modernist approach. The balance between abstraction and realism makes the scene feel both structured and timeless. The emphasis on light and shadow, though subtle, adds depth. This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary natural wood frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Size: 43 x 65 cm (including frame)
