A mid-century modernist serene coastal landscape captures the quiet, contemplative mood of a misty shoreline, executed in oil onto canvas.
The composition unfolds in horizontal bands, with earthy greens and orange marking grassy dunes in the foreground, gently transitioning into muted lavender and sandy tones along a rugged path that leads the eye toward a hazy seascape. A pale sky hangs over the scene, dissolving almost seamlessly into the ocean beyond, evoking a sense of distance and solitude.
Painted with confident, textural brushstrokes, the work displays the hallmarks of mid-century plein air expression. The artist’s technique is loose yet purposeful, blending areas of texture and thin washes to render light and atmosphere with immediacy. The gentle palette reinforces the painting’s quiet mood, while the bold greens and slate greys lend grounding contrast.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary linen lined wood frame with an inner gilt border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
