Italian school (XX) - Paesaggio

Oil on canvas mounted on a wooden support, depicting an evocative scene of rural life with figures in the fields, haystacks, rural houses, and a hilly/mountain landscape in the background.

The work, of an intimate format (18 × 24 cm), is characterized by a free and tactile brushstroke, a warm and earthy palette, and a lyrical approach typical of Italian naturalist painting of the early twentieth century. The composition recalls the post-Impressionist milieu and the tradition of the rural landscape, with particular attention to atmosphere and daily life.

At the bottom there is a partially erased signature, not fully legible, which to the naked eye may resemble the surname Zaroli; the work is therefore presented as attributed to / within the circle of an Italian painter of the early 20th century, without a definite attribution.

The support (canvas mounted on panel) and the contemporaneous gilded frame are consistent with the painting practice of the period.
Provenance: private collection, Palermo.

Authentic period artwork, ideal for collectors of 20th-century Italian painting and for classic-style interior decoration.

Total dimensions 32 x 25 x 2.5 cm
