L'arbre

20th-century French school oil painting on carton, signed in the lower right (illegible). On the back, there is a note mentioning Mme Marquezanie, who may be the artist. The artwork exhibits a subtle texture to the touch.

A landscape featuring a prominent oak tree in the foreground and houses in the background. The brushstrokes exhibit texture and volume, yet refrain from excessive material. Nevertheless, a captivating emotion and dynamism emanate from the technique employed. The light is subtly subdued, complementing the predominantly dark palette. The original frame enhances the charm of the work, showcasing marks acquired over time.
