About the Item

One of early of the French artist’s works by Emile Godchaux (fra.: Émile Godchaux, 1860 - 1938), late 19th century. This amazing landscape takes us to a cloudy spring day, making us feel the breath of a fresh breeze and the smell of melted snow. The lonely building and figure only emphasizes the emotional perception of the scene. At first glance, the color range of the painting seems somewhat limited, but the artist skillfully uses many shades and halftones to realistically depict melting snow, the sun breaking through the clouds and the forest reflected in the water. It is the magnificent sense of color and light that allows the artist to transform image of a cloudy spring day into a lyrical landscape full of mysterious narration. Discover the magic of a French Impressionist winter forest through this incredible oil painting by Emile Godchaux.

Fording the River Landscape British Master Nasmyth 19th century Oil Painting
Located in Stockholm, SE
Signed lower right "Nasmyth" leading to one of the whole pleiad of renowned Scottish artists starting with Alexander Nasmyth (1758 -1840). This painting showcases a scene of a landscape with shallow water, where a family is seen wading through a river ford in knee-deep water. The presence of a shepherdess on a high bank, observing the travelers with keen interest, adds a sense of pastoral charm to the composition. One of the focal points of the painting is a picturesque tree that has fallen into the river, adding a touch of drama to the overall scene. The contrast between the lush woodland and bushes on the right side of the foreground and the rolling valley on the left side further enhances the depth and perspective of the painting and superbly illustrates the traditions of the early 19th century British Art...
