A wonderfully expressive mid-century landscape oil painting on board, framed in a simple warm wooden frame and full of movement and colour. The scene shows a windy day in the countryside: trees bending and twisting under a blue, swirling sky, with bold impasto brushwork and thick passages of paint giving great texture when the light catches it. The palette runs through deep greens, blues and earthy browns, with flashes of lighter turquoise and yellow that feel very artist’s-studio chic and perfect for a layered gallery wall.
The painting is on board and appears unsigned. To the reverse is a vibrant mid-century cigarette advertising poster board featuring a glamorous illustrated figure – a quirky extra detail that means you could, in theory, hang it either way round or simply enjoy knowing that there’s a piece of pop culture history hidden behind the landscape.
Condition is decorative vintage: the painting surface has some light marks, minor scuffs and the odd tiny paint loss from age and handling, and the wooden frame has knocks, small dents and wear to the finish, all clearly shown in the photos and adding to the studio-found charm. Ready to hang as is.
Approx size (framed): 62.5 x 47cm (about 24 1/2" x 18 1/2").
