Description from the seller

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Signed in the central lower area.

- Georges Guinegault stands out as the supreme architect of French glamour, a master who elevated the art of the pin-up to a category of sophistication and pure Art Deco elegance. Trained in the academic discipline of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Guinegault knew how to transmute that technical rigor into the creation of the quintessential Parisian woman: someone who exuded elegant mischief and vibrant independence in the pages of legendary magazines such as La Vie Parisienne and Le Sourire. His masterful command of pastel and watercolor allowed him to endow his figures with a velvety luminosity and a chromatic freshness that avoided vulgarity, always preferring chic suggestion and the atmospheric charm of the Paris boulevards. More than a mere genre illustrator, Guinegault was a chronicler of desire and fashion of the interwar period, bequeathing a visual archive where femininity is celebrated as a perfect harmony between the malice of the boudoir and the unattainable distinction of French high culture.

- Image dimensions without frame: 98 x 48 cm / 114 x 65 cm with exclusive mid-20th-century custom-made frame.

- Montbaron Gallery attaches a technical data sheet prepared by an art historian titled with all its lots. This sheet is sent in digital format and upon request.

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and one-of-a-kind. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, creative vision and masterful technique, characteristics that guarantee its authenticity. The works we sell are not industrial reproductions; they are pieces created individually by recognized artists, each with its own story and essence. Originality is the foundation of our commitment to excellence and, therefore, every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity. Acquiring a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning a unique piece, an investment in the creativity and talent that, over time, will preserve its artistic and emotional value.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a world-unique piece, without any replica, and a testament to the innovation and passion of the artists we work with.

Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. Although it is an administrative procedure, it is indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free international circulation.

Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique and one-of-a-kind artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every acquisition, we offer a digital Certificate of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian.

This document will be sent in digital format and will be signed by an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and backing.

As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible condition. To do this, we work with a network of professionals specialized in transporting art, who guarantee the utmost care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances.

Our aim is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring that the artwork reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises.

The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, so it is not an integral part of the object.
