École de Paris (XX) - Promenade au café

An urban scene executed in oil within the modern figurative tradition linked to the École de Paris, datable to the late 20th century.

The composition presents a lively view of a Parisian terrace where the human figures, treated with loose and synthetic brushwork, integrate into a bright and vibrant atmosphere, evoking the characteristic mood of Parisian painting that inherits from Impressionism.

The artist builds the scene through dynamic color patches and a warm, nuanced palette, achieving a sense of movement and everyday life typical of the cafés and urban spaces that have inspired numerous painters tied to Paris's artistic milieu.

The light filtered through foliage and architecture contributes to creating an enveloping and poetic composition, where atmospheric perception prevails over descriptive detail.

The work is part of modern figuration with post-Impressionist inspiration, reflecting the continuity of the pictorial language of the École de Paris in the second half of the 20th century, characterized by a personal interpretation of urban life and an spontaneous execution that brings visual freshness and decorative appeal.

Coming from Paris, it constitutes a representative example of late Parisian figurative painting, especially interesting for collectors of works linked to the European modern tradition.
