Mid-Century Floral Impasto Oil Painting by J. Fevoli

This is an original mid-century modern oil painting on canvas featuring a still life of floral blossoms in a rounded vase. The artwork is characterized by a heavy impasto technique, where thick layers of paint are applied with a palette knife to create a three-dimensional, sculptural effect on the flower petals and centers. The color palette is dominated by autumnal tones, including deep ochre, lemon yellow, burnt sienna, and dark chocolate browns, set against a dramatic, moody background that shifts from dark umber to a bright, glowing yellow light source. It is signed "J. Fevoli" in the lower right corner. This artist is known for commercial decorative works produced in the mid-to-late 20th century. The painting is housed in an elaborate, period-correct tiered wooden frame with an outer border featuring an ornate scrolled acanthus leaf relief in a bronzed or antiqued gold finish, complemented by a linen-textured inner liner or 'slip' in a neutral beige. The overall construction suggests a production date between the 1960s and 1970s. The condition appears fair to good; the canvas seems taut, though there is visible age-related dust accumulation within the deep crevices of the impasto paint. The frame shows some minor scuffing and finish wear consistent with age, particularly at the corners. The craftsmanship reflects typical high-quality commercial gallery art of its era, designed for home decor with significant texture and visual impact.
