Oil On Canvas-covered Cardboard Depicting A Tapestry Of Greenery In The Aubusson Style, 20th Century
A charming and unique 20th-century oil on canvas board, depicting a "verdure" scene in the style of 17th and 18th-century Aubusson tapestries. The painting is executed with a beautiful, confident, thick, and matte brushstroke that faithfully reproduces the visual and even tactile qualities of these objects; the subject is not a tapestry design but rather a self-contained representation. The beautiful colors of greens, blues, ochres, and browns enhance the illusion of this "miniaturized" tapestry. The border has been left unfinished, further reinforcing the charm inherent in the "painted sketch" style. A few craquelures are documented in the photographs; otherwise, the paint layer is very sound and quite clean.
