Dimensions: 33” H x 41 ⅛” W x 2” D
A mid-20th century French oil on canvas painting of assorted red apples and green pears on a fabric draped table, the composition is a modern and fresh interpretation of a classic still-life arrangement.

Dimensions: 57 ¼” H x 63 ¾” W x 1 ½” D
An immersive French painting by Raymond Quibel, mid-20th century, this large work (likely gouache paint) on board draws the viewer into a fantastic landscape of electric blues and greens that give vitality to the lush scenery.

From the viewer’s perspective one observes a tall treeline with dense branches in rhythmic composition, giving way to a clearing where a river meanders through rolling hills dotted with young cypress trees. Signed by the artist, R. Quibel, to the lower left and framed in gold gilt molding this captivating work is ready to inspire in your interior.
