Halcyon Garden
SOLD.
A gorgeous impressionist oil painting depicting a lady in a hat seated out in a garden, reminiscent of the style of the French painter Auguste Renoir. This artwork has a sense of the romantic, and in its colour palette and brush work there is a soft-focus evocation of a halcyon day. The artist has used the same comma-like brushwork pattern for both sitter and background, creating a rather romantic effect where the dappled sunlight on the leaves of the trees has cast a similar light on the sitter’s body and chair, so she beautifully blends into her surroundings.
It is housed in a very unique frame. Within the outer gilt frame there is a grey slip which has speckles of coloured paint lightly applied to it. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
Size: 65 x 56 cm (including frame)
