About the Item

Title: French Impressionist Landscape of Rural Path in Vimoutiers Normandy By F Le Lay Signed: Yes Size: 13 x 16 inches (height x width) Oil painting on board, unframed Condition: The painting is in good condition with expressive texture throughout; minor surface wear and edge scuffing present. Provenance: All the paintings we have for sale by this artist have come from the artists estate and have had no previous owners at all. Description: In this evocative landscape titled Vimoutier (Normandie), French painter Fanch Lel captures a serene rural path leading through dense forest toward a glimpse of the town of Vimoutiers nestled below. The trees on either side of the winding path create a natural frame, guiding the viewer’s gaze toward the church spires and rooftops in the valley. The composition gently blends light and shadow, using varied greens and earthy tones to reflect the lush, undisturbed countryside of Normandy. Vimoutiers is a historic commune in the Orne department of northwestern France, known for its picturesque architecture, rolling hills, and connection to Normandy’s cheese-making traditions. Lel’s interpretation is both nostalgic and immersive, evoking the peacefulness of a quiet walk through the region’s bucolic landscape. The brushwork is confident and impressionistic, with dappled light filtering through pine trees and a suggestion of movement in the foliage. This is a beautifully composed work that would appeal to collectors interested in French rural scenes, impressionist landscapes, or regional depictions of Normandy.

Small country lane
By Henry Meylan
Located in Genève, GE
Work on canvas This artistic work depicts a captivating rural scene, imbued with tranquility and simplicity. In the center of the composition, a dirt road invites the viewer to get lost in this picturesque landscape. Earthy tones dominate the canvas, evoking an autumnal or winter atmosphere, where leaves are absent, leaving bare branches dancing in the gray sky. The house with its red roofs immediately catches the eye, contrasting with the shades of browns and greens in the rest of the painting. This pop of bright color serves as a focal point, suggesting warmth and refuge beyond the apparent coldness of the surroundings. The trees, stripped of their foliage, stand on either side of the path, forming a sort of natural corridor that guides the eye towards the background. The juxtaposition of the stone walls on the left and the wooden fence on the right creates a visual tension between nature and human architecture, reflecting a harmony typical of country landscapes. The use of light is subtle but effective, casting a soft glow that envelops the scene in a soft and serene aura. The cloudy sky brings an additional dimension, accentuating the impression of calm and silence...
