"Impressionist School (c. 1900) - "quando M'en Vo" [scene From "la Bohème")"
THIS SEPTEMBER ENJOY FREE DELIVERY IN THE EUROPEAN UNION* AT MONTBARON GALERIE - Oil on canvas. Marouflage on the back. - As in Giacomo Puccini's "La Bohème", in this café scene, an elegant lady is courted by an elderly gentleman dressed in a morning coat and top hat. The agility of the brushstrokes gives the scene the vitality and frenetic movement of a cabaret poster, while the measured lighting evokes the particular aura of the gas street lamps that illuminated Paris in 1900. Opera lovers will not be able to avoid the memory of Musetta's flirtation with Alcindoro in the last half of the second act of "La Bohème", created in Turin, and which, although set in the tales of the poet Murger in Paris in the 1830s, lends itself even better to the modernist atmosphere of the end of the century. - Dimensions of the image without frame: 32 x 26 cm / 50 x 61 cm with a beautiful frame - It comes from a private collection of paintings in Paris. - Good general condition. Minimal defects. - Galerie Montbaron attaches a technical sheet established by a qualified art historian with all its lots. This sheet is sent in digital format and on request.
