Carlo Sdoya - Beautiful Rural Landscape, 75x60cm

South African 1914-1996 (Record auction price R15 250 in 2012)

Born in Rome Italy, where he was schooled in fine art, Carlo Sdoya later moved to South Africa and made his home in Johannesburg, running an art studio - the Da Vinci School of fine art. Studying further with the likes of Durant Sihlali and tutoring several other prominent artists he created an impressive portfolio of works, found in numerous homes and collections throughout the world. 

Lovely rural scene in thick pallet knife oil, rich colours, incredible warmth and charisma, and just beautifully executed as always - the photos just can't quite do it justice. Lovely South African scene, 75x60cm, oil on board, unframed. Artwork in great condition, just some scuffing to edges from the old frame.
