La Gorge
$850.00
19th-century French school oil on wood panel. The work is smooth to the touch.
A peaceful, quintessentially 19th century antique French landscape painting of a river valley. The canyons are high and dark against a light summer sky. A small boat rests on the shore in the foreground, on what appears to be a sandy shore.
The play of light and the idyllic perspective harken back to the romantic period, while the palette's quest for authenticity aligns closely with the realistic movement. Despite its modest dimensions, the artwork possesses an undeniable contemplative power.
