Paysage rural avec plan d’eau, an oil painting by Marius Ledda from the 19th century, France, sold with frame.
Description from the seller
Marius Ledda (1880–1965). Landscape with pond.
A charming landscape composition that represents a natural scene with a wetland or pond in the foreground, articulated through a horizontal arrangement of planes that lead the eye toward a hill in the background, crowned by buildings and vegetation.
The work is characterized by loose and confident brushwork, with a chromatic construction based on greens, ochres and violets, tinged by luminous reflections on the water surface. The treatment of the landscape responds to a synthetic and atmospheric interpretation, where the capture of light and the vibrancy of color prevail over descriptive detail.
The water, resolved through horizontal brushstrokes and fragmented reflections, introduces depth and dynamism, while the elevated area in the distance provides compositional balance. The overall piece sits within a post-impressionist sensibility, typical of French painting at the beginning of the 20th century.
The work is signed and accompanied by an identifying plaque in the frame with the inscription “Rome 1912”, which suggests its possible execution or chronological reference in that context.
It is framed with a wooden moulding and protected with a front glass.
The conservation state is generally good, showing slight losses and wear in the pictorial layer, in keeping with its age, without compromising the reading or stability of the work. The prepared cardboard support appears stable.
The frame shows wear and signs of use typical of the passage of time. The protective glass limits direct observation of the painted surface.
It is recommended to carefully examine the images, which are an essential part of the description.
