The Maple Grove in Beauce by Francesco Iacurto is a 20 x 24 inch oil on canvas produced circa 1975 and signed in the bottom right corner. The piece is also signed and titled on the reverse. It depicts a small shack in the middle of a dense forest. A path in the central foreground leads viewers into the scene where figures can be seen working out in the snow, collecting sap to make maple syrup. Iacurto uses a soft palette of blue and mauve to create a peaceful atmosphere, highlighting the sugar shack in a golden light as if sun is pouring down on it.

Renowned for his vivid portrayals of Quebec, its people and landscapes, Francesco Iacurto perfectly captures this quaint winter scene, preserving a quiet moment in time.
