Clouded Sky above Waters Edge Landscape Painting by Pierre de Clausade

A mid 20th century, French, oil on canvas, landscape painting by Pierre de Clausade (1910-1975), in an antique chalky frame.

A stunning, simple and serene French landscape painting depicting a huge clouded sky, billowing above a tree lined waters edge. Represented in a beautiful contemporary colour palette, perfectly paired with a soft chalky painted frame.

Pierre de Clausade (1910-1975) was born in Paris. He was a very successful artist who spent many years experimenting with techniques to develop a style that he felt was unique to him. His first exhibition was therefore relatively late in his career at the 1941 Paris Salon, where he was awarded a silver medal. His style of painting proved to be very popular and he went on to exhibit worldwide and had a very successful career. 

In good clean condition with some crazing to paint surface consistent with age.
