An oil painting on canvas by the artist Irene Cafieri, depicting a serene woodland river scene. The composition is centred on a calm body of water that reflects a pale, misty sky, flanked by mature deciduous trees with dense foliage in a palette of deep greens, earthy browns, and autumnal oranges. The foreground is rendered with thick, textured brushwork to detail the riverbank’s wild grasses and reeds, while the background fades into a soft, atmospheric haze. The painting is signed I. Cafieri in the lower right corner. The work is presented in an ornate moulded gilt frame featuring scrolling foliate motifs at the corners and centres, complemented by a linen-textured inner slip with a narrow gilt border.
