An exquisite original masterpiece for the discerning collector: vintage oil on canvas painting by elio ferrara - "paris marché aux puces" enhance your collection with this exquisite, original large vintage oil on canvas by the distinguished italian artist, elio ferrara (b. 1945). This exceptional masterpiece, dating from the 1980s, beautifully depicts a victorian-era paris french flea market in all its charm. It is entitled "paris marché aux puces" or paris flea / antique market. Every brushstroke showcases ferrara’s remarkable attention to detail and masterful technique. The vibrant colours and intricate detail caught my eye instantly, reflecting a scene steeped in nostalgia. Imagine stepping back in time to an era where french ladies graced the streets in elegant gowns and fashionable hats, while gentlemen donned smart suits, top hats, and bowler hats. This captivating painting portrays an autumnal paris marché aux puces, with stalls laden with antique paintings, books, and curiosities. A bugle player entertains a young girl in a striking green dress, while a lady, umbrella in hand, converses with a porter. Nearby, gentlemen peruse the market’s offerings, intrigued by the selection of books. The tree-lined streets and the unmistakable architecture in the background evoke a timeless french setting. Expertly mounted in an antique, limed wooden frame adorned with gold gilt detailing, this piece exudes timeless elegance. The frame, of the finest quality, complements the artwork beautifully, adding a sense of sophistication and grandeur to any space.
