1940s Abstract French Oil Painting

About the Item

Abstract Cubist oil painting on canvas from 1940s France. Moody and dynamic, the image depicts the beginnings of a town. A smoky gray sky gives the scene an industrial feeling, while the earthy palette of oaken browns, terracottas and mossy greens tethers the scene to its past environment.
