About the Item

Bring rich texture and regional charm to your interior with this expressive mid-century oil painting by French artist Joseph Muslin (1911–2003). Titled "Paysage d’Alsace", the work captures a warm and rustic village view rendered in bold palette knife strokes and thick impasto. Earthy ochres, soft neutrals, and deep red tones evoke the glow of late afternoon in the Alsatian countryside, while the simplified architecture and sculptural texture add a distinctly modern sensibility. Muslin was active in France during the postwar period and is known for his stylized landscapes of Provence, Alsace, and other French rural regions. His paintings often feature strong color contrasts and impasto technique, as seen here. This piece was acquired from the Van der Straeten Gallery in New York, a venue known for exhibiting European modernist painters in the 1960s and 70s, and retains the original gallery label and handwritten title on the stretcher. Measuring 32 inches wide by 27.5 inches high, the painting is presented in its original carved and gilded wooden frame. A compelling and substantial work ideal for collectors of mid-century French art or anyone drawn to bold, regional modernism. Excellent condition commensurate with age and use.

1932 French Riviera Oil on Canvas Landscape by Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck
Located in Dallas, TX
Set in its original silvered leaf frame, this vibrant oil on canvas captures the sunlit charm of the island of Porquerolles on the French Riviera, painted in 1932. The scene depicts a Provençal village with terracotta rooftops, a church steeple rising over the clustered houses, and vineyard rows in the foreground, all set against a backdrop of deep blue waters and distant mountains under a luminous, cloud-filled sky. The artist’s rich brushwork and warm palette convey both atmosphere and place, creating a work full of depth and natural harmony. Signed in the lower right corner by Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck and dated on the verso, the painting remains in very good condition commensurate with age and use, with fresh, lively colors and appealing surface texture. Gregoor Van Puyenbroeck (Belgium, 1906–1982) was part of a family of artists, the brother of painter Jan Van Puyenbroeck. He studied at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts and the Institut des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp, where he was a pupil of Walter Vaes...
