About the Item

Work on canvas dimensions with frame 74 x 93 x 6 cm This captivating work depicts a rural landscape where the harmony between nature and architecture is carefully portrayed. In the foreground, two figures are busy, adding a human and dynamic dimension to the scene. They appear to be engaged in agricultural activity, suggesting a daily life marked by simplicity and hard work. The brightly colored houses, yellow and white, stand out against the dark background of the hills, creating a striking contrast. The heavy, cloudy sky accentuates the meditative atmosphere. The treatment of perspective and the sobriety of the lines emphasize the balance between natural and constructed elements, offering a realistic yet poetic vision of this bucolic scene. This bold composition, with its use of color and shadow, invites the viewer to contemplate the tranquil beauty of the rural world.
