Description from the seller
Oil on cardboard representing the portrait of a young woman signed
Max Léon MOREAU (1902-1992)
Max Léon Moreau (1902-1992) was a Belgian painter and watercolorist, born September 2, 1902 in Soignies and died September 7, 1992 in Grenade. Son of the painter Henri Moreau, he studied in Brussels, then devoted himself to portraiture and genre scenes with Orientalist influences.
Career: five stays in Tunisia from 1929, three years in Marrakech after the war; regular exhibitions in Tunis, Algiers, Casablanca and Paris (Galerie Bernheim-Jeune, 1951).
Style: realism mixed with Orientalism — portraits of Moroccan women, souk scenes, still lifes and Paris street scenes.
Late life: final settlement in Grenade; Parkinson's disease from 1982, bringing his exhibition activity to an end.
Legacy: the Casa Museo Max Moreau is dedicated to him in Grenade.
Dimensions of the work: without frame: 55 cm x 44 cm
The work is dated 1934 and signed bottom left
