Fiechter, Arnold - Malerei, Sommertag Binninger Höhe is a 1943 unspecified by Arnold Fiechter, held at Archaeology and Museum Baselland.
This painting shows a bright, sunlit countryside scene. A horse and cart move down a dirt road, with a person riding and another walking beside. The grass is green, trees line the road, and the sky is soft blue with a few clouds. The brushstrokes are thick, especially on the horse and road, making the colors pop. The painting feels lively, even though the scene is simple. The bright red of the horse stands out against the green and brown of the landscape. The artist used bold colors and loose brushwork to capture the light. If you like this style, look up impasto.
Gustav Arnold Fiechter was a Swiss painter and teacher at the trade school in Basel.
