The Delights of Landscape 1928 by Rene MagritteFine Art

The Delights of Landscape 1928 shows a painted outlook across a calm stretch of ground. A few solid forms sit in a plain field, drawn with the clear outlines Rene Magritte used in his surrealist painting practice. The picture leaves space around the objects instead of crowding them.

This fine art print sits inside a frame with a back panel. The matte surface keeps the painted greys and greens without shine under a lamp, so the painted ground reads as a single quiet field.

On a narrow landing wall you notice the plain field first, then the small outlines of the objects in the lower half. The frame edge gives the picture a clear line against the surrounding paint.
