Le Sous-Bois

19th-century French School oil painting on carton signed in the lower right (illegible). The artwork is smooth to the touch.

A forest view with seamless brushstrokes and a realistic color palette. The use of light, the dark heavy foliage and the smoky sky are reminiscent of the Barbizon School. The gilded frame and its floral mouldings contrast the gravity of the landscape and enhance its luminosity.
