Mountain River Landscape – Framed Signed Oil Painting

Description
This captivating oil on canvas landscape, signed by an unidentified artist, portrays a tranquil river snaking through an alpine valley ablaze with autumnal color, all framed by distant snowcapped peaks. The composition is elegantly balanced, drawing the eye naturally from the richly textured foreground to the luminous horizon. Brushwork is assured and expressive—particularly in the rendering of foliage and rocky riverbanks—while subtle gradations of light and color evoke a clear, crisp mountain atmosphere. A restrained yet evocative palette of cool blues, slate greys, and warm ochres gives the piece a timeless, grounded beauty. The artist’s approach suggests an affinity with plein air traditions and the tonal realism found in early to mid-20th-century American landscape painting. With its serene mood and immersive depth, this work offers a powerful yet soothing visual anchor, ideal for refined, nature-inspired interiors.
