Oil on canvas, late 19th century











This exquisite oil painting on canvas of Italian school, dating back to the end of the nineteenth century, contains the charm of a wooded landscape that fascinates with its natural beauty. Initials "st" in the lower left corner but the artist has not been identified and the painting is without authentic. In this suggestive composition, a majestic and ancient oak attracts the viewer's attention in the foreground. The artist's exceptional ability is evident in meticulous details, in the vibrant application of the color and in the masterful use of light, which magnificently highlights the contours of the trees in the foreground while gradually merges with the shady depths of the forest beyond there. This technique suggests a possible influence of the Macchiaioli movement, known for its attention to naturalism and the effects of light. The painting is elegantly presented in an antique wooden frame adorned with silver leaf, which increases its overall charm. Although the frame has some signs of wear, it enhances the historical character and the charm of the painting, making it a remarkable piece for any art enthusiast or collector.
