"Watercolor Painting Animated Scene View Of Avignon Street Carreterie Eugène Yvan 20th Century"
Very beautiful and rare watercolor by the Avignon painter Eugène Yvan This very beautiful view of rue Carreterie is a rare scene with many characters and a cart pulled by a horse. Eugène Yvan's perfect mastery of watercolor is expressed here in the strong contrast of shadow and light, it must have been painted in the morning because given the orientation of the street which is north-south, the sun is to the East. The inclination of the various characters, the carriage and the naturally inclined Carmelite tower give the scene an incredible sensation of life and movement which is very virtuoso. Our painter is best known for his talents as a watercolorist where he has depicted numerous places in Avignon and its surroundings. 92.5 x 70 cm with the frame 55 x 38 cm watercolor 19th century frame Perfect condition
