About the Item

Work on wood - Molded frame in plaster and gilded wood Dimensions with frame 56.5 x 76.5 x 5 cm This oil on wood by Eugène Castan depicts a peaceful, bucolic scene in the countryside. The landscape stretches out under a vast sky, slightly veiled by clouds, where the soft light plays with the natural hues of the setting. In the foreground, a small pond reflects the nuances of the sky and surrounding vegetation. The water's edge is lined with tall grasses and wild flowers, adding a touch of life and realism to the scene. Two figures, probably peasants, stand at the edge of the pond: one standing, wearing what appears to be a red hat, and the other seated or crouched, in a contemplative posture. Their discreet presence lends a human and intimate dimension to the work. The landscape opens onto a verdant plain dotted with pollarded willows, typical of rural areas, and a few slender trees with light foliage. In the background, a country house can be made out, partially hidden by the vegetation. The autumnal color palette, with its soft, earthy tones, accentuates the atmosphere of calm and serenity. The overall effect is one of great harmony, true to Castan's style, which finely captures the tranquil essence of nature and the simplicity of rural scenes. The treatment of light, subtle and enveloping, gives this composition an almost poetic quality.
