Signed Mid-Century Impasto Forest Landscape Oil Painting

This item is a representational oil painting on canvas depicting a tranquil autumnal forest scene with a central waterway or reflective pond. The artwork utilizes a limited tonal palette consisting of ochre, burnt umber, cream, and olive green, characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century decorative landscapes. The composition features tall, slender birch or poplar-like trees in the foreground, executed with heavy impasto texture on the trunks to create three-dimensional bark effects. A signature is visible in the lower right corner, appearing to read 'TILLO' or 'TILLU' in a stylized block script, often associated with studio artists of the 1960s-1970s. The piece is housed in a substantial, ornate gilded Rococo-style frame featuring decorative floral swags and scrollwork at the corners and mid-points. The frame includes a linen-textured inner liner that shows minor age-related discoloration. Overall, the painting appears to be in good vintage condition with stable paint layers, though the frame shows light surface wear and minor gilt loss consistent with its age. The atmospheric depth is achieved through misty, light-colored brushwork in the background, contrasting with the thick, textured application of the forest floor and foliage.
