A beautiful impressionistic oil on wood depicting a French river landscape with castle ruins. It feels quickly painted and was probably created ‘en plein air’ while the artist enjoyed the view.
There are some nice passages where the oils are layered to create texture. Signed R. Damoiseau in the lower right and housed in a frame that could be the original.
