This oil painting depicts a village street scene with red-roofed buildings and dense foliage, rendered in an Impressionist style with prominent, textured impasto brushstrokes. The work is housed in a substantial, ornately carved dark wood frame with foliate motifs and a gilded inner slip. An illegible signature is present on the right edge of the composition. Two modern auction inventory labels are affixed to the upper right corner of the frame.
Condition report:
