AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Henri Lauga (born 1918)
Riders in a stylized forest landscape
Oil on cardboard, signed bottom left H. Lauga.
Fascinating scene of a horseback ride immersed in a stylized forest landscape, where horsemen move along gentle hills outlined by thin, vertical trees. The composition, rhythmic and almost musical, alternates solids and voids, creating a decorative effect of great balance.
The painting is distinguished by a naive and synthetic language, with warm, harmonious colors that build a vision suspended between reality and imagination. The figures, reduced to essential forms, confer on the work an intimate and poetic narrative dimension.
On the back there is a handwritten inscription, probably referring to the subject or provenance, as well as the stamp of the format 2F (24 × 19 cm).
Technique: oil on cardboard
Dimensions: 24 × 19 cm
Dimensions with frame: about 33 × 28 cm
Conditions: good overall condition, with normal signs of aging
Frame present
Careful shipping with professional packing. Please note that postal shipping, while the most economical option, is not the ideal method for artworks and does not guarantee the absence of risks, especially for works on original support. Tracked shipping; insurance on request and at the buyer’s expense. Possible longer times and customs costs for international shipments (including the European Union). Collection in Geneva advised. In case of return of the lot, return shipping costs will be borne by the buyer.
