Preliminary identification

Mid-Century Studio Landscape by Russell Moreton

Photo reference

2 uploaded photos

Overview

A large-scale, hand-painted oil or acrylic on canvas depicting a tranquil wilderness scene with a rushing stream and towering pines.

Story

The post-war housing boom created millions of new walls that needed a soul, leading to a golden age of accessible, hand-painted art for the middle class.

Maker / Origin

Russell Moreton is a well-recognized name in the world of mid-century decorative arts, though he functioned more as a 'studio brand' than a solo gallery artist.

Condition & Value

The canvas shows some surface dust and minor age-related scuffing, which is typical for a piece of this size and age. The simple 'floater' frame is consistent with the period but shows some wear; a light cleaning of the canvas would significantly enhance the vibrancy of the colors. Condition is generally good for its age.
