Artist: Al Glenn (20th Century) Title: Untitled River Landscape Date: 1926 Medium: Oil on board Signature: Signed and dated lower right, "Al Glenn 1926." A pleasing original oil on board depicting a tranquil river landscape with tall Lombardy poplars reflected in calm water beneath a softly illuminated sky. Painted in 1926, the composition is rendered in a restrained tonal palette of olive greens, ochres, and muted blues, capturing the quiet atmosphere of the countryside. Executed with deliberate, visible brushwork characteristic of the period, the artist emphasizes the rhythmic forms of the poplars and their reflections while simplifying the surrounding landscape into broad masses of colour. The composition reflects the influence of early twentieth-century Impressionist and Post-Impressionist landscape painting, where mood and harmony take precedence over fine detail.
