A beautiful antique French oil on board, circa 1900, with original art supply label verso.
Loose impressionist view of a rocky Normandy river winding to the sea, with cottage and moody blue-grey sky. Gorgeous muted palette of slate blue, moss green, and ochre. Unsigned, as is typical for these small plein air studies.
Verso retains the original palette-shaped label: "ANCIENNE MAISON BIZET / P. LAMBIN Succr de GLACON / 47 R. DE LA REPUBLIQUE / ROUEN" - a historic Rouen art supplier.
Oil on thin wood board, unframed. Good antique condition with honest age wear to edges and corners as photographed, light surface craquelure and wear. See photos.
Approx. 7-1/2"h x 9-1/2"w. Perfect for gallery wall, bookshelf styling, or layered on a mantel.
Provenance: Normandy, France.
