Capture the tranquility of a village by the water with this large and warm oil painting on canvas. This figurative painting, in a style reminiscent of late Impressionism, evokes the soft and misty atmospheres found along the rivers of Southeast Asia, most likely the Mekong Delta (Vietnam or Cambodia). Details of the Artwork: The Subject: A scene of peaceful life by the water, featuring traditional stilt houses and silhouettes bustling around canoes. The Light: The artist has beautifully captured a diffuse and humid light, creating subtle reflections in the water that merge with the lush vegetation. The Technique: The painting is executed in oil with visible brush strokes and a lovely impasto texture, particularly in the dense jungle on the left, offering captivating depth and relief. Signature: Signed at the bottom right "JEFF". Artist unidentified on the international scene, likely a local painter working with landscapes. Atmosphere: Ideal for adding a touch of escape, warmth, and serenity to your living room, office, or library. Technical Characteristics: Oil on canvas. Support: Canvas mounted on a simple wooden frame (see photo of the back). Era: Probably the second half of the 20th century (1970s). Condition: Generally good condition. The colours are still vibrant. Ready to be hung.
