AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

EXCLUSIVELY FOR NO RESERVE DAYS!

Refined oil on European canvas, probably dating from the first half of the 20th century, depicting an oriental lady immersed in an atmosphere of elegance and contemplation.
The figure, dressed in a wide white gown finely decorated and enriched with blue drapes, is rendered with extraordinary delicacy, seated among trees with flowering branches of intense red that create a suggestive chromatic contrast. The serene and composed expression of the young woman, along with the attention to ornamental details, gives the work an exotic and timeless charm, reflecting Western taste for Orientalist art.
The painting is framed in a splendid argentated frame with an embossed phytomorphic motif, which enhances the chromatic refinement and the preciousness of the scene. A work of great elegance, ideal for enriching collections dedicated to Orientalist art or environments seeking a touch of refinement and suggestion.


Please note that, given the age of the work, there may be small defects, breaks, or missing parts: natural signs of time that testify to its authenticity and history.
The photographs were taken under direct spotlight light, to highlight every detail.

Our shipments are fast, professional, and packaged in perfect protection: hence the related shipping costs.

In accordance with current regulations on works of art, no lots will be shipped outside Europe (Schengen area), except by private agreement at the buyer's expense.
