About the Item

Oil on canvas depicting a quiet architectural landscape, signed and dated Jean Beyeler, 1974. The composition centers on a modest, light-toned house set within a darkened landscape, flanked by tall trees that frame the structure and reinforce the vertical rhythm of the scene. The building emerges subtly from its surroundings, its pale façade contrasting with the deep greens, charcoals, and muted browns of the foliage and ground. Executed with a restrained, atmospheric palette and softened brushwork, the painting conveys a contemplative and almost timeless mood. Beyeler’s treatment of form privileges atmosphere over detail: edges dissolve gently into shadow, while the sky is rendered in layered greys and warm undertones, suggesting dusk or overcast light. The result is a poetic balance between architecture and nature, solitude and presence. Signed and dated lower left. An evocative example of late 20th-century European figurative landscape painting, well suited for collectors of modern landscapes, architectural scenes, or works emphasizing mood and tonal harmony.
