Painted in oil on canvas, this work depicts a quiet rural scene with a small farmhouse set among rolling fields and tall trees, rendered with Solotaire’s characteristic restraint and sensitivity to light and atmosphere.

The composition balances structure and looseness, with confident brushwork in the foreground grasses and carefully observed architectural detail in the buildings. Solotaire’s palette—muted greens, soft ochres, and atmospheric grays—creates a sense of calm and timelessness, reflecting his commitment to traditional painting values while maintaining a distinctly modern sensibility.

This work bears a gallery label from the Janet Nessler Gallery, Inc., 718 Madison Avenue, New York, a respected mid-century gallery known for representing accomplished American painters. The presence of this original gallery label provides solid provenance and reinforces the work’s authenticity and period context.

The painting measures 18 inches by 12 inches and is presented in a substantial, period-appropriate gilt frame with linen liner. Overall framed dimensions are 24 inches by 18 inches. A strong and highly decorative example of mid-20th-century American landscape painting, well suited for collectors of realist and regionalist traditions. See less
