Oil on canvas

A serene mid-century semi-abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

A snow-covered countryside is rendered with serene restraint. A distant village emerges from the soft whites and ochres of the fields, its clustered rooftops and warm-toned structures punctuating the pale horizon. Subtle hints of rust, terracotta, and charcoal create visual rhythm among the buildings and trees, while the sky is quietly layered in muted lilac and blue.

The composition is minimalist yet evocative, with gestural brushstrokes that suggest rather than define form. The artist has used a refined palette of soft creams, icy blues, and mellow earth tones to conjure the essence of a winter scene without becoming literal. The loose brushwork and atmospheric perspective evoke a feeling of quietude and stillness. The overall impression is one of contemplative calm, where memory and landscape dissolve into one.


This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful dark grey wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting has some areas of craquelure present, but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has minor scuffs at its inner section but is in very good condition overall.
