Description from the seller

"Paese di Montagna"
Oil on canvasboard
Dimensions: 71 x 52 cm in a contemporaneous frame
Painting: 50 x 30 cm
*** work presented without reserve price
A suggestive Alpine landscape by Athos Brioschi, constructed with a wide perspective that leads the eye from the foreground ground to the small village gathered at the center of the valley and, finally, to the imposing snow-capped peaks that close the composition.
The inhabited nucleus, dominated by the slender bell tower, is rendered through loose and immediate painting: the houses, in shades of white, ochre, and brick red, emerge vividly from the surrounding countryside. Bare trees, fences and small parcels mark the foreground, giving the scene an authentically rural character.
Particularly effective is the relationship between the serenity of the small village and the monumental nature of the mountains. The snow-capped peaks, realized through bright, dense, and succinct brushstrokes, stand out against a gray, atmospheric sky, traversed by large masses of clouds.
The brushwork, quick and tactile, especially on the buildings and the mountains, favors luminous and chromatic synthesis over analytic description, conveying the atmosphere of a late winter or early spring day, when the valley snow has already almost entirely withdrawn.
The work is signed at the bottom right and presented within an elegant gold frame with a fabric passe-partout.
The work is in good condition with signs of time.
The frame shown in the photo will be included as a courtesy gift.
