French Empire Period Pastel and Gouache Painting, circa 1810 in Giltwood Frame
-
Description
A French Empire period floral pastel and gouache painting from the early 19th century, in giltwood frame. This French painting features an exquisite depiction of a bouquet of flowers set inside a metal vase, adorned in its upper section with what could be waterleaves. It is the exuberant bouquet that attracts all of our attention, with its variety of flowers and abundance of colors. The pastel technique, associated with the gouache, gives the ensemble an undeniable softness. The bouquet is placed on a marbleized pedestal, whose texture brings out the color of the flowers beautifully. With its vertical format, delicate subject and quality of execution, this Empire period painting circa 1810, set inside a giltwood frame, will enliven any wall beautifully.
