Petit Trianon, an original hand-signed oil on canvas by Germaine Marcel-Béronneau (1869–1927), produced in 1900–1910 in France and sold with a frame.
Description from the seller
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Signed by hand.
- In this delicious landscape captured by the hand of Germaine Marcel-Béronneau, the Petit Trianon rises among the foliage like a jewel of balance and restraint, wrapped in the hazy atmosphere characteristic of the post-Impressionist sensibility of the artist. From the perspective of the gardens, the small palace stands out not for its scale, but for its neoclassical refinement; an architecture of Cartesian purity where golden proportions and the Corinthian order dictate an absolute harmony in front of the surrounding nature. The façade, in a cream tone that seems to absorb Versailles' filtered light, rises with restrained elegance, underscoring that transition from expansive Baroque to a sober geometric simplicity that sought “truth” in the forms of antiquity.
- Image dimensions without frame: 65 x 55 cm / 81 x 70.5 cm with exclusive custom frame.
