Ischia, oil on panel signed Ricciardi

We are pleased to present this early 20th-century oil painting on masonite. This stunning coastal landscape of the island of Ischia is signed lower left: Ricciardi. It is likely the work of the Italian painter Oscar Ricciardi (Naples, February 24, 1864 – Naples, 1935), but no authentication is available. This small painting captures the charm of the Italian coast. The dense vegetation of a pine forest on the right overlooks the sea and a fantastic distant horizon where sky and sea meet. The painterly quality is evident in a highly personal style, characterized by bold, textured brushstrokes that seem to bring the landscape and trees to life. If you are familiar with the Italian islands, you will be captivated by this painting, so much so that you will feel transported by the scents and sounds of this landscape. A wonderful painting that will enchant your guests! The painting is presented in a splendid gilded wooden frame.
