Vintage 1958 Mid-Century Oil Painting - signed Tod '58

Purchase Protection & Refund Policy

Lovely (presumably) mid century impressionist oil painting with signature Tod '58 and provenance sticker on the back dating back to Australia. Framed size 32cm by 43cm Could be by William "Tod" Frederick Tod (or related regional circles): The signature points directly to a localised mid-century painter or an artist exhibiting in Perth during the late 1950s under a moniker or nickname like "Tod." During the late 1950s, the Mona Lisa Art Gallery on Hay Street frequently handled framing, supplies, and sales for notable local impressionist and landscape painters working around the Swan River and Perth hills. The stylised, thick block-impression style of the trees and house matches the post-war European immigrant and regional Australian landscape art movements flourishing in WA during this decade.
