Description:
A lyrical landscape by French painter Didier Chort (b. 1951), White House with Blue Gate captures a quiet domestic façade framed by trees, its windows and entry punctuated with vivid cobalt accents. Painted in 1987, this oil on wood panel balances structural clarity with expressive brushwork, blending architectural solidity with atmospheric light.

Chort’s hand is evident in the deft abstraction of foliage and the deliberate play of geometry, where the sharp angles of the house and gate meet the softened forms of nature. The work is signed and dated lower right and presented in a 1940s American modernist frame that enhances the painting’s tonal harmony.

Suggested Placement:
Ideal for a study, library wall, or intimate gallery arrangement. Works well layered with other modern European landscapes.
