Description: The composition is defined by broad, expressive brushstrokes and thick impasto, creating a rich texture and a focus on capturing light and atmosphere. The muted, earthy tones of the landscape are dramatically contrasted by two figures in the middle ground, prominently featuring a central figure dressed in vibrant red. This striking use of color draws the eye and anchors the scene, adding a narrative element to the otherwise expansive, minimalist landscape.

  • Style: Impressionist / Post-Impressionist style, utilizing expressive brushwork and impasto.
  • Subject: A coastal or marsh scene with two figures, one prominent in red.
  • Condition: Good vintage condition, consistent with age. (Note: A professional evaluation of condition is recommended).
  • Framing: Presented in a dark, ornate frame.
  • Signature: Signed.

Dimensions: 18 x 16.5 inches.
