Description from the seller
EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE!
Fascinating Orientalist-style female portrait, depicting a smiling young woman with a traditional headdress and richly adorned clothing. The lively and spontaneous expression of the face constitutes the centerpiece of the composition, made particularly pleasant by the attention given to the gaze, the features, and the radiance of the skin tone.
The warm palette, dominated by ochre, red, and gold tones, is enriched by the green and blue shades of the fabric draped over the shoulders. The brushwork is soft and tactile, with a pleasant attention to the ornamental details of the dress.
The work is presented within a beautiful black frame with a rich inner gold border, particularly suited to enhance the colors of the painting.
The photographs were also taken under directed lighting to best show the colors, details, and painting surface.
The work shows normal signs and defects compatible with its age and history. The frame is considered a courtesy and therefore will not be counted in the lot in case of damage during transport. For each work we issue a certificate of guarantee.
Fast shipping and professional, careful packaging. Each work destined for countries outside the Schengen area will be shipped rolled in a dedicated tube, without frame or stretcher.
