Heavy Impasto Oil Painting Hill Village Signed Girard Framed Canvas Art
PRODUCT DETAILS
• Material: Oil on canvas, applied with palette knife and brush in very heavy impasto
• Dimensions: Framed approx. 28 1/2 x 22 1/2 in; sight approx. 24 x 17 in (estimated)
• Color/Finish: Frame is a pale limed/silvered flat with a gilt outer lip
• Era/Period: Undated; consistent in hand and period with a companion piece dated 1978
• Provenance: Family-owned since it was painted; signed “Girard” by a relative of the current owner, not a listed market artist
• Subject: A hillside village scene
The surface is built up with thick, knife-applied paint that gives the village scene strong physical texture and shadow across the canvas. It comes ready to hang in its original pale silvered frame with a gilt inner lip, and as a one-of-a-kind family piece it carries a personal history rather than a market attribution.
