AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
French School of the 20th Century. River landscape with bridge and figures.
Interesting landscape composition that represents a river scene bathed in a luminous and serene atmosphere, where a wide arched bridge extends over calm waters, reflecting the architecture and the sky on a tranquil surface. In the foreground, the sloping riverbank and the presence of small boats introduce depth and dynamism, while a solitary figure adds a subtle narrative character to the scene.
The work stands out for its vibrant chromatic treatment and for a modern interpretation of the traditional French landscape, where forms are synthesized through a decisive brushstroke and an intense palette that emphasizes the contrasts between greens, blues, and ochres. The balance between figuration and stylization gives the composition a contemporary aesthetic within the 20th-century landscape painting tradition.
The play of reflections on the water and the clarity of the sky contribute to a sense of calm and spatial expansiveness, evoking river landscapes characteristic of modern French painting.
Framed.
Conservation status in keeping with its age.
