Beautiful muted antique French (Barbizon) school oil on canvas board by Alexandre Dronsart (1890 - 1953).  This is what I call a 'quiet' painting, one that doesn't shout but still makes a big impact on the atmosphere and calmness of a room.  It's French school, in true Barbizon style, with a person walking down a county path, heading towards a village or enclave of houses.  It's the palette that the artist has used that will strike a note with you, hints of lilacs and purple haze, gorgeous greens and the juxtaposition of the darkness of the trees against the light of the field in the fore, making this a very astute and dignified composition.  The canvas is relatively smooth..
