I. Cafieri (20th Century), Autumnal Misty River Landscape, Oil on Canvas An original oil on canvas by I. Cafieri, depicting a hazy river scene framed by trees with autumnal foliage. The work is executed in an expressive style with significant impasto and textured palette knife work, which is particularly prominent on the central tree trunks and the foreground foliage. The palette consists primarily of earthy ochres and browns, accented by flecks of bright blue and pink highlights. The painting is signed I. CAFIERI in black to the lower right corner. It is housed in a large, ornate gilt-finished composite frame decorated with scrolling foliate and shell motifs at the corners and centres. Verso, the canvas is mounted on a wooden stretcher with modern plastic corner keys and is partially covered by a brown paper backing. 29.5 x 41.5 inches.
