"Young Provençal (or Italian?) 19th Century"
Young Provençal (Italian?) girl at the fountain, 19th century, the beauty of the model is manifested by the subtlety of the flesh tones (face, birth of the breasts with delicate eroticism) and by the finesse of the touch (hands) which come in contrast with the shimmering reflections of the fabric of the dress opposed by the sparkling transparency of the water. It is part of a wooded background where the touch becomes more melted and refers to the basket of flowers placed on her knees. Characteristic work of the Romantic period, of great quality of execution. Oil on metal in very good condition. frame as is. Format: 25 x 21.5 cm with frame: 33 x 29 cm
