Impressionistic House with Floral Vines Oil Painting

This is an original oil painting depicting an impressionistic scene of a charming house adorned with vibrant floral vines. The artwork displays a vivid color palette, dominated by warm yellows and creams for the house walls, contrasting with cool blues and greens for the shutters, door, and surrounding foliage and ground cover. The painting is characterized by its thick impasto brushwork, a hallmark of Impressionism, which gives texture and depth to the surface, particularly noticeable in the foliage and the rough texture of the house walls. Several windows are visible, with two on the left side featuring closed blue-grey shutters. A central window is open, revealing a warm, glowing light emanating from within, suggesting evening or a cozy interior. A similar glowing light is seen through a door further to the right. Pink, yellow, and red flowers entwine around the house, creating a romantic and lively atmosphere. The foreground features a path or ground cover rendered with dabs of blue, green, and purple, indicating loose, natural landscaping. The signature 'C. Simon' or 'G. Simon' (the initial is somewhat ambiguous) is visible in the lower left corner. The painting is housed in an ornate, possibly gilded, wooden frame, which shows some visible wear and tear consistent with age and handling. A price tag of '$250' is affixed to the bottom of the frame, indicating it is likely being sold in a retail or gallery setting. The overall condition appears to be good with no obvious signs of significant damage or repair to the canvas itself, though closer inspection would be required to confirm. The style strongly suggests a 20th-century origin, likely mid to late 20th century, drawing heavily from Impressionist aesthetics.
