David Mitchell
Cyprus - Landscape Painting of Sun Drenched Eastern Mediterranean Country Scene

1995 Circa

About the Item

Cyprus - Landscape Painting of Sun Drenched Eastern Mediterranean Country Scene by 20th Century Artist, David Mitchell (1936-2020) Art measures 28 x 24 inches Frame measures 34 x 30 inches This captivating large-scale oil painting by 20th-century artist David Mitchell beautifully captures the sun-drenched landscape of Cyprus. Rendered in a classical realist style, the scene depicts a sweeping pastoral view under a dynamic sky, where wildflower-strewn fields stretch toward a distant village nestled at the foot of a mountain range. Mitchell’s masterful use of light and shadow evokes the warmth and richness of the Mediterranean climate. In the foreground, a meandering path leads past figures walking through the countryside, while a group gathers under the shelter of trees—a timeless portrayal of rural Cypriot life. The composition is both expansive and intimate, drawing the viewer into the serene rhythm of the land. The artist’s attention to atmospheric detail, from the billowing clouds to the golden grasses dotted with red and white wildflowers, reveals his deep sensitivity to place and season. This piece reflects Mitchell’s skill in combining narrative charm with a sophisticated command of colour, light, and perspective. Elegantly presented in a complementary frame, this work stands as a remarkable testament to David Mitchell’s ability to immortalize the essence of a landscape with painterly grace. A striking centrepiece for collectors of 20th-century European or Mediterranean art. David Mitchell was born in Surrey in 1936. After completing his education and national service he chose the life of a business man in the international oil and gas industry. This took him to most corners of the world until, in 1990, he and his wife were so entranced with the beauty of the Ardnamurchan Penninsula that they moved there. Although David was always keen on drawing it was not until his retirement that he started to paint in acrylics. He now spends much of the wetter months painting his local area, and during the summer spends his time on his other interest of fishing. Sadly David passed away in early 2020.
