Description from the seller
Antonio Pecoraro (1938)
Refined Scene at the Café (Belle Époque) enriched by a MAESTIZO handcrafted frame in plaster with gold leaf and cream passe-partout in gold thread 80 x 60 cm.
Splendid oil painting on canvas by the master Antonio Pecoraro, a prominent figure of the contemporary Neapolitan school, renowned for his ability to revive the elegance and charm of Paris in the early 20th century.
The work captures a lively outdoor society scene at a café during the Belle Époque. The technique is vibrant and tactile: the artist uses bold brushstrokes and a light-rich palette to define the female figures in their refined period costumes and the play of reflections on the tables and the surrounding environment.
