About the Item

This small-format oil painting "Calling to nature " by French artist Natalya Mougenot evokes the quiet ambiguity of nature. Painted on stretched cotton canvas (20 x 20 cm / 7.9 x 7.9 in), the piece captures a fleeting emotional landscape with rich, textured brushwork and a restrained, thoughtful palette. This striking artwork employs bold, impasto brushstrokes that create a vivid, textured landscape. The composition features a dynamic sky rendered in swirling blue and gray tones, reflecting an impending storm or a clearing atmosphere. Below, two calm blue water bodies slice through a verdant forest, evoking a sense of tranquility amid nature's raw beauty. The lush greenery on either side is depicted with deep greens mixed with bursts of orange and brown, suggesting the presence of seasonal changes or varied flora. The piece's strength lies in its textural contrast and vibrant colors, which convey both movement and stillness. This unique combination of color and texture immerses the viewer in an unrefined yet emotionally resonant natural scene. Mougenot embraces authenticity, simplicity, and honesty in her artistic process. She works without a strict plan, allowing the painting to unfold intuitively in a single sitting. Each small canvas becomes a moment of presence—a visual story told in one breath. For her, the small format is not a limitation, but a space for clarity and emotional focus. Perfect for intimate interiors or curated collections, this painting draws the viewer in, encouraging a quiet, personal connection. Whether displayed on its own or among other works, it offers a subtle but deeply felt presence—art that speaks softly, yet stays with you. Each painting is carefully packaged and shipped directly from France, accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity to ensure provenance and integrity. In a world often consumed by complexity and haste, thus piece  is a gentle nudge to slow down, breathe, and cherish the ordinary. It is not just a painting—it is an invitation to enjoy nature. About the Artist: Natalya Mougenot, born in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan, in 1981, has lived in Lyon, France, since 2003. Her multicultural background and personal journey deeply inform her work, which explores themes of resilience, femininity, and inner truth. What began as a therapeutic practice has blossomed into a powerful artistic language—one that honors the spirit of transformation and the beauty found in emotional honesty. Her pieces now reside in private collections across the globe.

Landscape
By Merton Clivette
Located in San Francisco, CA
Artist: Merton Clivette (American, 1868-1931) Title: Landscape Year: Circa 1925 Medium: Gouache Paper: Heavy Bristol type Size image: 22.75 x 28 inches Paper size: 22.75 x 28 inches Signature: Signed lower left by the artist Condition: Excellent Frame: Unframed About the artist. Clivette was born in Portage, Wisconsin, in 1868 as Merton Clive Cook, the youngest of five (four sons and one daughter). His father was a retired British sea captain, and his mother was an American of French, Scottish and Iroquois Indian stock. He stayed with a circus for about five years, traveling all over the Western United States, Canada and Mexico. They did shows for the army forts, for railroad workers and on Indian Reservations. Clivette settled in San Francisco in 1886, when he was offered a job as a reporter and theatrical writer for the San Francisco Call. He met Frederic Remington during this period. He was the first serious artist Clivette had met and he was an inspiration to him. Clivette had done some drawing and painting on the road during his vaudeville years, he had a natural facility for it, and he had had some formal art training as well. He had had some training in Europe and was aware of the modern art movement in Europe. Later in New York he participated in symposiums and workshops at the Art Students League. Around 1910 he gave up his stage career and began to paint full time. He was about 40 years old and was to continue to paint vigorously and prolifically for the remaining 22 years of his life, His style can be identified with the Expressionist Movement, His subjects include portraits (some quite realistic, others more generalized) Indians and horsemen, laborers, gentlemen and vamps, jungle animals and birds, fish, seascapes and landscapes. He was an active participant in the art world of New York. He was a member of the Society of Independent Artists. In 1923 he showed at the Ainslee Art Gallery at 677 Fifth Ave., in 1925 at the Spanish Society in Brooklyn and in 1927 he had a solo show at the New Gallery, 600 Madison Ave. That same year there was also a solo show of his work in Paris at the Bernheim-Jeune Gallery, which included a catalogue. In 1929 he exhibited at the Art Center of the Roerich Museum in a group show of work from the collection of George Hellman. In 1930 he was in a show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, "Painting and Sculpture by Living Americans" which also included the work of Stuart Davis, Arthur Dove, William Glackens, Marsden Hartley, Childe Hassam, George Luks and Mark Tobey and sculptors Gaston Lachaise and William Zorach among others. A description and critical analysis of his work in included in the book by Henry Rankin Poore...
