"Landscape With Church By Gaston Balande"
In this balanced and luminous composition, Gaston Balande (1880-1971) delivers a peaceful landscape, centered on a church overlooking a body of water. The soft colors—greens, blues, pale yellows—convey a calm and meditative atmosphere. True to his style, the artist simplifies the shapes, plays on sharp contrasts, and punctuates the scene with small human figures, suggesting a moment of peaceful life in a timeless place.
