Landweg, an oil painting from the 1940–1950 period, originating in the Netherlands, by Mia van Genesen.
Description from the seller
This painting shows a vast and almost empty polder landscape with an unpaved, muddy road that runs from the foreground to the horizon. The road forms a strong depth line and guides the eye along several leaning trees into the landscape. On either side lie dark fields and bodies of water, while a large part of the painting is occupied by a heavy, cloudy sky. The artist mainly uses subdued gray, brown, and green tones and paints with loose, visible brushstrokes. The bent trees and turbulent clouds give a sense of wind and changing weather, giving the landscape a rugged, somber but also atmospheric appearance.
By the Dutch artist Mia van Genesen (1914)
Executed in oil on canvas.
Not framed
Dimensions of the work approx. 80 × 100 cm
