AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Atmospheric small landscape, oil on panel, bottom right signed "L. Rousseaux" and dated '95.

Subject: a birch grove in autumn colors beside a quiet brook. Through the bare branches with the last golden leaves, light falls deep into the wings, giving the forest space and depth. The birch trunks are worked with fine brushwork and visible relief; the reeds and the banks in a flowing, paste-like stroke. A intimate little work that captures the moist, mild atmosphere of a autumnal forest.

The painting style and subject align with the late 19th-century landscape tradition in the vein of Barbizon and the Belgian painters of Kalmooth and Tervuren. The signature form "Rousseaux" occurs in Belgium; the artist has not yet been further identified. See the photos, which are part of the description.

Technique: oil on panel
Panel dimensions: 12.5 × 20.5 cm
Dimensions with frame: approx. 17 × 25 cm
Signature: bottom right "L. Rousseaux", dated 1895
Provenance: private collection

Condition: good for its age. Even fine craquelure over the entire surface, consistent with age. Varnish slightly yellowed. Mounted in an ornate gilded frame with a few small damages at the corners. Residues of a sticker visible on the back.

Carefully packed and shipped with tracking.
