Vintage Japanese Oil Painting - Thatched Farmhouse and Snow-Capped Mountains
A rural landscape depicting a traditional thatched-roof farmhouse beside a wooded area, with a rough path crossing the foreground. A snow-covered mountain range rises behind the trees beneath a blue sky with white clouds.
The painting uses textured brushwork to depict the snow, vegetation and uneven ground. The palette contrasts the blue sky and white mountain peaks with dark greens, earthy browns and muted tones in the foreground. The style is associated with Yōga, the Japanese tradition of Western-style painting.
The lower-right corner bears a white signature that appears to read “S. Gim". The painting is executed on canvas board or a similar rigid support, with a fibreboard reverse. No additional inscriptions or labels are reported on the back.
