Paul Saïn Avignon, 1853 - Avignon, 1908 Sunset on the Rhône river near Avignon Painting, oil on canvas Signed Painting: 180 x 125.5 cm Beautiful Degas oak frame: 195.5 x 141 cm (warning very large format) History: painting exhibited at the Salon circa 1885-90 (there is a Salon label on the back, unfortunately fragmentary and difficult to decipher) Very good condition Note: Paul Saïn exhibited several paintings with substantially similar titles. It is therefore difficult to know which Salon our painting is linked to. For example at the Blois Salon of 1888: Fisherman on the docks of the Rhône river, near Avignon; Salon of French artists of 1880: The evening; Salon of French artists of 1891: Sunset, around Avignon. Etc. #artmasterpieceQ2
