Object Description
“Lost Horizon” by Harry Brioche is a captivating oil on board painting that transports the viewer to a tranquil yet expansive landscape. The perspective is from above, almost as though we’re gazing down from the height of a mountain, offering a unique and somewhat distant view of the world below. The rolling green fields stretch endlessly, bathed in a soft, almost dreamlike light that highlights the subtle variations in texture and tone. Above, the sky is filled with heavy gray clouds, which contrast with the vibrancy of the earth, creating a harmonious balance between light and shadow.
The bright, almost radiant quality of the light fills the scene with an airy sense of optimism, while the darkening clouds suggest an impending shift, adding a layer of mystery and anticipation to the composition. Brioche’s skillful rendering of this natural scene in oil on board brings every detail into sharp focus, from the texture of the fields to the soft, sweeping brushstrokes of the sky. There’s a meditative quality to the work, as if time slows down, inviting the viewer to pause and take in the vastness of the landscape. Signed and ready to display, this painting is currently available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, offering a unique opportunity to own a piece of this serene yet powerful scene.
