AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Yves Dieÿ (Paris, 1892 – Montluçon, 1984)
Self-portrait, 1927
46 x 38 cm
Signed and dated in the lower right corner
An interesting self-portrait by the French painter Yves Dieÿ, at a stage of full artistic maturity. The composition presents the artist in the foreground, with elegant dark attire and a sober introspective attitude, resolved against a neutral background of warm tones that reinforce the psychological intensity of the portrait.
The work stands out for its balanced compositional construction, the subtle modeling of the face and the confident brushwork, especially visible in the treatment of the flesh tones, the clothing, and the luminous nuances. The overall effect conveys seriousness, refinement, and a notable ability to capture the sitter's presence, qualities that place this piece within the best tradition of French portraiture of the first half of the 20th century.
Signed and dated, this self-portrait also constitutes a particularly valuable testimony within the artist's production, as it is a work of intimate and representational character, in which the painter offers a direct and personal image of himself.
Dimensions: 46 x 38 cm.
Important: the image showing the work hung and framed in a museum space is a digital recreation made solely for presentation purposes. The frame is not included in the lot.
