1946 Mid-Century Modern Expressive Landscape Oil Painting - Rural Tranquility

1946

About the Item

RURAL TRANQUILITY Size: 60.5 x 72 cm (including frame) Oil on board A tranquil mid-century landscape composition, executed in oil onto board and dated 1946. The painting captures a serene rural landscape with a country road leading through a cluster of houses nestled among lush trees and rolling fields. The composition guides the viewer’s eye through the pastoral scene, with distant farmsteads adding depth to the background. The artist has used a loose, expressive style with thick, textured brushstrokes that emphasise movement and atmosphere. The colour palette consists of earthy greens, warm yellows, and muted browns, complemented by pops of red in the rooftops, which provide contrast and visual interest. The brushwork is gestural and expressive, lending the painting a tactile, dynamic quality. This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame with an inner black window. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffing present. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible.
