R. Farrance (20th Century), Mountainous Lake Landscape, Oil on Canvas

This oil on canvas landscape painting is signed R. FARRANCE in black block letters in the lower-left corner. The composition features a calm lake in the foreground which reflects the surrounding trees and hills. To the right, a large bush is rendered with thick impasto highlights in yellow. The middle ground consists of a lush green landscape with mixed woodland, leading to a background of snow-capped peaks under a light sky. The work is housed in a decorative double frame comprising a wide off-white moulding with gilded foliate scrollwork and a gilded inner slip.
