French Vintage Framed Landscape Painting
$2,200.0020.13"H x 42.38"W x 2"D
Dimensions: 20 ⅛” H x 42 ⅜” W x 2” D
A charming vintage French landscape painting–elongated to a wide panorama–to appreciate the unspoiled beauty of the Ain countryside (Ain is a department in Eastern France) where a mother, two children, a goat and perhaps the grandmother can be seen walking a dirt path through a clearing in the tree line. Gently rolling hills and pastures are seen toward the background under thin cloudcover. The framed work includes a small plaque dedicated to a Madame Juillet for her work with Children’s Mutual.

French Vintage Framed Painting of a Cross
$250.0011"H x 9.88"W x 0.88"D
Dimensions: 11” H x 9 ⅞” W x ⅞” D
A petite French vintage cityscape painting on panel of a large cross in the center of an unidentified Iberian town, the artist’s colorful technique abstracts the perspective to say for sure where and when. The tight composition might be depicting a stop on the Camino de Santiago, the pilgrimage route through Spain, as the viewer can observe a figure leaning against the base of the monument–its elaborate field cross towering above–and modest buildings of terracotta roofs lining the roadway. Set within a narrow frame of mottled color and texture, ready to hang in your interior. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition.

French Vintage Framed Mountain Landscape
$650.0021.13"H x 23.88"W x 2.13"D
Dimensions: 21 ⅛” H x 23 ⅞” W x 2 ⅛” D
French vintage framed landscape painting on board of a mountain range with a river flowing through the steep valley and a bridge crossing to a small village. The contemporary palette appears to be drawing from Cézanne’s novel technique of layering paint that afterward became known as Cubism, a modern approach to interactions of color and shadow emphasizing their emotional qualities over accuracy in natural forms. Indistinct signature of the artist to the lower right, set within a (textured) vintage frame of similar age and condition. Please view the detailed images to see more.
