A mid-20th-century rural landscape painting executed in oil on canvas.
69cm W * 58cm H
The work is rendered in a post-impressionist style, depicting a cluster of buildings nestled among rolling hills and verdant fields. The artist has utilized a muted palette of ochres, greens, and soft blues, applied with visible, textured brushwork that gives depth to the undulating topography and dense foliage.
The canvas is signed Elston in black paint to the lower right corner. It is housed in a wooden slip frame with a gilt inner edge, set within a wide fabric-covered outer border. The reverse of the frame bears a handwritten date of 1972 along with inventory notations reading 185 * 040. The canvas is stretched over a wooden stretcher fitted with corner keys.
