1930's
About the Item
Oil on board view of a water well set amidst romantic ruins and foliage with a figure, by L Masson. Signed bottom left presented in wood frame. There is a chalk inscription to the back of the board but it is unclear as to if this refers to the artist.
The painting has the feeling of the earlier Barbizon school of the 19th century and its interpretations of nature and the romantic view of the countryside. It is also reminiscent of some of the later works of Corot.
There is a lovely feeling of light and shade, an enticing perspective into the painting and a feeling of lushness from the foliage. Many charming details confidently handled such as the rope to the water well and the costumed figure.
