Alpine Mountain Landscape Oil Painting

This item is a representational oil painting on canvas, likely dating from the mid-to-late 20th century. The composition features a classic Alpine mountain scene, dominated by a majestic, snow-dusted peak under a bright sky. In the middle ground, traditional low-slung chalets or mountain lodges are nestled among evergreen and deciduous trees. The foreground consists of a rolling green meadow with visible rock outcroppings. The artist utilized a broad, impasto technique, particularly visible in the white highlighting of the mountain face and the texture of the foreground grass. The color palette is naturalistic, employing various shades of cerulean blue, forest green, earthy ochres, and crisp whites. There is a red signature or mark in the lower left corner, though it is slightly blurred in the provided image. The painting is housed in a contemporary gilded or silver-toned frame with a dark inner liner. The condition appears fair, with consistent surface texture and no immediate signs of significant paint loss or structural damage, though a light layer of surface dust and age-related patina may be present. The work reflects a regionalist folk-art style common in European mountain tourist regions.
