Atmospheric evening landscape by Ignace Kennis, focusing on light reflections on wet fields, executed in oil on canvas.
This expansive evening landscape depicts a low-lying terrain where water and earth merge seamlessly. The horizon is set low, defined by a dark line of trees against a heavy, clouded dusk sky. Kennis employs a restrained yet nuanced palette of blue-greys, purples, and greens, punctuated by warm yellow reflections that evoke the final light of day. His loose, painterly brushwork privileges atmosphere over detail, giving the composition a quiet, contemplative character typical of his lyrical realist landscapes.
