French School, Arcadian Landscape with Bridge and Animals, Oil Painting on Canvas, Late 18th century
A late 18th-century oil painting on canvas, depicting a pastoral landscape with animals drinking by the river. This scene is cast in a warm light, and the vibrant blue of the sky contrasts beautifully with the rich terracotta and the green of nature. The rendering of the vegetation is particularly pleasing, with a lot of attention paid to the refined details of the leaves. In contrast with more detailed areas, the cow, goat and sheep alongside the human figure are loosely rendered, adding a gorgeous interest to the painting.
Typical of French landscape painting in the late 18th century, this sumptuous work combines the harmonious lines of Neoclassicism with everyday pastoral tasks, as a charming element of realism. With a perfect size to suit any room, this rare and wonderful work is newly mounted in a giltwood frame.
