Aerona Large Landscape River Scene Oil Painting on Hardboard 1975.
A large scale landscape painting executed in oils on a textured hardboard support, dated 1975. The composition depicts a tranquil river gorge, likely a representation of the Fairy Glen in North Wales, featuring water flowing over a rocky bed between steep, moss-covered banks. The scene is illuminated by a bright light source in the upper background, which creates a luminous reflection along the centre of the river and highlights the verdant foliage and mossy textures of the foreground boulders. The work utilizes atmospheric glazing and detailed brushwork to convey depth. The lower left corner is signed in brown paint 'AERONA / 1975'. The painting is housed in a period composite frame with gilt-toned edges and a wide, dark green textured fabric-effect insert. The verso reveals the brown hardboard backing and a simple hanging cord.
Height: 67.3 cm.
Width: 100.3 cm.
More Information
The painting is in good overall condition. There are some minor spots of surface dirt and light dust accumulated in the textures of the paint (photo 5). The frame shows minor wear to the gilt finish along the outer edges and corners (photo 1). The hardboard support remains stable with no warping visible from the verso (photo 11).
