AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE!

A fascinating oil painting on canvas from the 20th century, depicting three elegant horses immersed in a natural landscape rich with vegetation.

The scene unfolds with harmony and a sense of calm, showing the animals in a static yet highly expressive pose, almost caught in a moment of rest or observation.

The horse in the foreground, with warm golden tones, dominates the composition with a solid, well-defined presence, while behind it one can glimpse a gray and a white specimen, creating an interesting play of depth.

The anatomical rendering is careful and realistic, with soft brushstrokes following the shapes of the animals, highlighting their musculature and natural elegance.

The surrounding landscape, with tall trees and luminous vegetation, helps create a serene and bucolic atmosphere typical of naturalistic painting.

The color palette is warm and enveloping, with greens and ochres blending delicately to give balance and visual appeal to the whole.

The light, diffused and natural, evenly illuminates the scene, highlighting details without creating excessive contrasts.

Work signed bottom left, an element that increases its interest and collectability.

Ideal painting for classic interiors, studies, or spaces dedicated to horse lovers and traditional painting.

Gilded wooden frame finely worked, with an elegant grooved decorative motif and reliefs, perfectly in line with the subject and capable of enhancing its stage presence.

Please note that, given the age of the work, there may be small flaws, cracks, or gaps: natural signs of time that attest to its authenticity and history.

The frame is offered as a complimentary addition and will not be considered an integral part of the lot in case of damage during transport.

The photographs were taken under direct spotlight.

Our shipments are fast, professional, and with perfectly protected packaging: from which the related shipping costs arise.

Under current art-works regulations, no lot will be shipped outside Europe (Schengen area), unless private arrangements are at the buyer's full expense; any shipments outside the EU may be more expensive and subject to possible issues.
