Sail boats in Venice - Mid Century Modern Original Framed Oil Painting of a Venetian Scene

A vibrant and richly painted scene of angular buildings rising above the turquoise waters of a Venetian lagoon. The artist has depicted the light, shadow and reflections of the narrow waterways in confident, wide brushstrokes. A beautiful bold picture that throws out colour and light in the post-impressionist style.

Oil on Board, Circa 1950. Held in its original frame. Signed lower right.

The painting is in very good vintage condition.
