Campagne de France 1950

“Campagne de France” (1950) is a lithograph by the French artist Louis Joseph Soulas (1904-1954) which depicts a rural road leading towards a village nestled amongst fields and a cloudy sky. Soulas’s use of fine, precise lines creates a sense of depth and realism, characteristic of his artistic style. The lithograph captures a quiet moment in the French countryside, where the figure of a lone cyclist suggests a sense of peaceful solitude. This artwork exemplifies the beauty and tranquility of rural France, a popular theme for artists in the 20th century.
