Description:
This vintage original oil painting by Irene I. Cafieri presents a richly atmospheric woodland landscape. Painted with bold impasto strokes and a skilled use of colour, the work captures the serenity of a riverside woodland in autumn. The composition balances the monumental trees in the foreground with soft, misty layers of foliage receding into the distance, creating depth and tranquility.
Cafieri’s work reflects the mid-20th century appreciation for romanticised natural scenes and decorative art, making this a desirable piece for collectors of vintage oils or those seeking a striking feature piece for the home.
