Landscape Painting by Genevieve, Dated 10-71

The item is a framed oil painting on canvas. The visible section of the painting shows a landscape with lush green and yellow vegetation, likely representing tall grass or reeds. There is a bright blue area in the background, suggesting a body of water or the sky. To the right, a portion of a black and white object is visible; based on the context of the item listed as 'Genevieve,' which is often a female name, and the common subject matter in many amateur and folk art pieces, this could be a portion of a cow or another animal. The brushwork appears impasto in the vegetation, with visible texture created by the application of paint. A legible signature is present in black paint within the vegetation area, reading 'GENEVIEVE' followed by '10-71'. This indicates the artist's name and likely the date of completion, October 1971. The canvas has a white or light-colored edge visible between the painting and the frame. The frame is a decorative gold-toned wooden frame with some visible signs of wear, including possible nicks or chips along the bottom edge. The frame's finish has a distressed or antiqued appearance, with darker patination in the recessed areas. Based on the apparent style, the signature, and the date, the painting is likely from the early 1970s.
