Important oil painting on canvas from the Art Deco period, signed. (We could not identify the artist, difficult to read the signature). of a steeple). Beautiful composition in shimmering colors emerging from a splendid summer day bringing together hundreds of participants in traditional costumes gathered in a friendly atmosphere adjoining the idyllic site of the chapel "Notre Dame de la Joie" built in the town of Penmarch on the borders of the Bigouden country in the south . This work produced with a palette which, as with the Impressionists, comes to lighten up with dazzling free strokes, perfectly mastered by the lightness and liveliness of the brush, to escort us towards a pretty, richly animated summer landscape where the artist organizes its planes and structures the space by the color which remains the dynamic thanks to a specific rendering of the atmosphere of this open-air party. While preserving the evocation of the spirit of the place guided by the portrait of the groups. Carefully arranged with local costumes that are predominantly dark and colorful. Our painting is objectively worthy of the finest achievements of the artist. Rare large format in very good general and original condition. Presented in a refined Art Deco style frame in lacquered wood with a pattern of golden spandrels. Dimensions: 114cm X 64cm / without the frame: 100cm X 50 cm.
