Mid 20th Century Vintage Expressionistic Acrylic Landscape Painting in Greens, by artist Joyce Williams

This exquisite vintage expressionistic landscape in greens is a marvelous example of Post-Impressionist art from the mid-20th century. The vibrant strokes and energetic lines are a testament to the prevalent style influence of the era, fashioned after such luminary artists as Bernard, Van Gogh, and Maurer. The masterful pattern play showcases attributes reminiscent of Gauguin and other Fauvist artists from early 1900s France.

Post Impressionism is defined as  artistic styles that all share the common motivation of responding to the opticality of the Impressionist movement. The stylistic variations assembled under the general banner of Post-Impressionism range from the scientifically oriented Neo-Impressionism of Georges Seurat to the lush symoblism of Paul Gauguin, but all concentrated on the subjective vision of the artist. The movement ushered in an era during which painting transcended its traditional role as a window onto the world and instead became a window into the artist's mind and soul. The far-reaching aesthetic impact of the Post-Impressionists influenced groups that arose during the turn of the 20^th century, like the Expressionists. 

Though little is known about the artist Joyce Williams, this piece is believed to have been created by the British artist active during the mid-20th century. The painting's reverse markings reference to its origin, adding an intriguing layer of history to its already captivating presence.

Williams' work captures the dynamic essence of Post-Impressionism, with its bold use of color and expressive brushwork. The lush greens of the landscape pulse with life, evoking a sense of movement and emotional depth. This painting is a stunning testament to the enduring influence of the Fauve movement and the innovative spirit of mid-20th-century art.
