This oil landscape painting by Yorkshire artist Lillian M. Harrison dates from 1950. Titled "The Stormy Moon" and created in 1956, the artwork utilises oil paint on board, capturing an expressionist scene of dark, swirling bare tree branches framing a luminous full moon. The palette is dominated by midnight blue alongside lighter tones of white and green. The piece is housed within an ornate, carved light wooden frame featuring elaborate mouldings and floral corner decorations. The visible details include thick impasto brushwork and visible drips in the paint application. The artwork measures 95 cm high, 83 cm wide, and 8 cm deep. Suitable for placement above the mantel in a gentleman's library, the painting provides a striking focal point for a traditional interior scheme. The composition hangs securely on the wall, bringing mid-century artistic expression into a modern living space. The textured surface and deep tonal contrasts interact naturally with ambient room lighting.

FAQs

Mid-century Expressionist landscapes typically feature dramatic brushwork, emotive colour palettes, and stylized forms that convey mood rather than literal representation. Artists from the 1950s often used thick impasto application of oil paint to explore light, atmosphere, and organic forces.

Oil paintings from this period were generally rendered on stretched linen canvas or board using traditional oil mediums. Swept frames with carved detailing and linen painted slips were frequently used to provide texture and complement the tonal values of the artwork.

Authentic 1950s paintings often display natural age-related craquelure, subtle darkening of the canvas reverse or stretcher wood, and period-correct artist signatures. Examining the paint layer depth and structural aging helps confirm the era of creation.

A moody mid-century landscape creates an anchor point when hung above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table. Grouping textured oil art alongside contemporary minimalist furnishings or rich timber pieces creates effective visual contrast.

Keep oil paintings away from direct sunlight, humidity, and heat sources to prevent cracking or canvas distortion. Dust gently with a dry, soft natural bristle brush and consult a professional restorer for varnish cleaning or repair.
