Description from the seller
Ottone Zorlini (Treviso 1891 - São Paulo 1967) - Landscape with lake and mountains.
23.5 x 30.5 cm (without frame) - 38.5 x 45 cm (with frame).
Oil on cardboard, in wooden frame.
Signed lower left: «O. Zorlini».
Ottone Zorlini was a painter from Treviso active between Italy and Brazil during the first half of the twentieth century, trained within the Venetian tradition of plein air landscape painting. His work reflects a consistent focus on natural light and atmospheric rendering, with a loose, synthetic brushstroke close to the experiences of Lombard realism and the post-Impressionist Venetian school. The painting depicts a lakeside landscape with a low, rocky shore in the foreground, a wooded promontory to the left, and a broad expanse of water opening toward a distant mountain profile. The overcast sky, rendered with animated and layered brushstrokes, lends the scene a quietly atmospheric quality. The palette moves from earthy browns in the foreground to deep greens and muted blues in the water and distant hills.
