A confident and freely drawn pencil sketch depicting a sun-drenched Provençal landscape with trees, rolling hills, and open sky. Inscribed on the reverse "Dessin 1950, French Art Provence, Aix-en-Provence" — confirming both the date and location of execution.
"Dessin" — the French word for drawing — and the Aix-en-Provence inscription place this work firmly within the rich artistic tradition of Provence, a region that has attracted painters and draughtsmen for centuries owing to its extraordinary light and landscape. The loose, gestural line work suggests a trained hand working quickly from observation in the field.
Presented under glass in a simple mat frame. Acquired from an antique dealer in Aix-en-Provence.
