Mosque in Tunisia
Watercolour on paper, signed lower left. Framed under glass.
A luminous Orientalist view of a mosque with minaret, domes and figures, painted with the fresh, stippled touch typical of Lucie Ranvier-Chartier. The composition captures the light of North Africa and the warm tones of stone and sunlit sky.

No 54” with the name of a former owner. This label documents participation in Galerie Ecalle’s Colonial Exhibition devoted to Tunisia, early 20th century.
