№AAA3869

This oil painting cardboard, titled "In the mountain fields", the painting exudes warmth, tranquility, and a deep connection to nature, drawing the viewer into the peaceful beauty of life in the mountain valleys. In the foreground, rolling fields stretch across the canvas, painted in bright yellows, soft pinks, and warm greens. The energetic brushwork conveys the texture of wild grass swaying gently in the breeze, illuminated by the golden light of the sun. Among the grass, a small herd of animals, likely cows or horses, grazes peacefully, adding life and movement to the scene. The middle ground reveals a quaint village nestled between the fields and the mountains. The small white buildings, with their distinct rooftops, contrast against the lush greenery and provide a sense of warmth and human presence. At the center of the village, a beautiful church with white walls and domed towers stands out, acting as a focal point within the composition. The church’s presence enhances the timeless and spiritual essence of the rural setting. Flanking the village, clusters of dark green trees frame the composition, painted with thick, expressive strokes. Their deep tones create a striking contrast against the brighter colors of the fields and mountains, anchoring the landscape with a sense of stability and structure. The background is dominated by a vast mountain range, painted in a mesmerizing blend of purples, pinks, and blues. The artist’s use of color creates an almost dreamlike atmosphere, giving the mountains a soft, ethereal quality. The textured application of paint enhances their rugged surface, while the interplay of light and shadow suggests depth and distance. Above, the sky is a swirling mix of soft blues, purples, and hints of green, painted with broad, sweeping brushstrokes. The cloud formations add movement and a sense of changing weather, reinforcing the dynamic nature of the landscape. The painting transports the viewer to a place where the simplicity of rural life coexists with the grandeur of the mountains. Through a masterful use of color, texture, and composition, the artist creates an inviting and immersive scene, allowing the viewer to feel the freshness of the mountain air, the warmth of the sunlit fields, and the quiet serenity of life in the highlands.
