SLOW DÉCOR FOR AN INTENTIONAL LIFESTYLE.
A Scene with Stillness
Painted in oil on board, this mid-century French study captures the soft hush of late afternoon light falling across a quiet courtyard. On one side, a timbered outbuilding tucked beneath tall trees while on the other, a whitewashed cottage with shuttered windows and a dark tiled roof. The composition is simple but assured, clearly sketched, loosely handled and full of atmosphere.
A Piece with a Story
Though unsigned, the painting was likely created as a plein air study around mid century. The palette leans earthy and subdued, with sage, rust, ochre and pale blue built up in bold, expressive strokes. There’s a sense of movement in the brushwork, particularly in the foliage and sky, but the subject remains quiet and rooted, anchored by the geometry of the buildings and the shadows stretching across the courtyard.

A Collector’s Study
Perfect as part of a gallery wall or standing alone, this piece adds a painterly calm to any space. Lovely for collectors who appreciate understated French studies and the quiet poetry of architectural forms seen through an artist’s eye.
