Item Description
This late 18th-century French overdoor oil painting on board depicts an evocative country scene, with cows, dogs, and figures riding horses by a lake, surrounded by trees, bushes, and farm buildings in the distance. It showcases a delicate palette of greens and blues, contrasting with the rich browns of the animals and figures. Mounted in a remarkable stained wood frame, it is highlighted by an ornate wavy line that exquisitely frames the scene. With its large scale and elongated rectangular shape, it was likely displayed above a door in a wall-panelled boiserie room. This rare work makes a refined statement, whether displayed as an exquisite overdoor piece, as originally intended, or as a striking standalone work.
