La Forêt

20th-century French School oil painting on hard carton, signed Simone Ouay (19th-20th century) and dated 1924 in the lower left corner. The surface is smooth to the touch. An old label from a Paris Painting Academy is affixed to the back.

We always seek works by female painters, especially from the 19th century, as they are a rare and distinctive group. Although we have limited information on Simone Ouay, this charming oil painting depicts a serene retreat into nature along the banks of a river. It features rich green and organic tones and is in good condition for its age.
