RIVERBEND AT DUSK
Size: 23 x 31.1 inches (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A large and soothing mid-century landscape that captures a tranquil countryside view with a winding river cutting diagonally across open fields, executed in oil onto canvas.
The composition leads the eye into the distance, where layered hills and a soft, expansive sky stretch across the horizon. The painting conveys both stillness and quiet movement, as the river becomes a guiding line through the scene.
Painted in a modernist, mid-century manner, the artist has used broad, expressive brushstrokes and simplified forms rather than meticulous detail. The work leans towards abstraction while retaining enough realism to evoke a recognisable landscape.
The palette is earthy yet luminous, with rich greens, browns, and muted burgundies in the foreground fields. A bold streak of deep blue defines the river, contrasting against the surrounding land. Above, soft creams, pale pinks, and gentle blues create a sky at once atmospheric and serene, suggesting the shifting light of late afternoon or early evening.
The brushwork is loose and gestural, laid down in broad sweeps that capture the essence of fields, sky, and water. The layered strokes in the sky suggest drifting clouds, while horizontal blends across the horizon create depth and atmosphere. The foreground is built up in thicker, more textured strokes, giving the land a grounded presence against the airy openness above.
This large oil on canvas is presented in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, The frame has light age-related wear, including some scuffs to the gilded section, which do not detract from its overall presentation.
