Excellent condition.

Wansart also painted the reverse side of this board: nude seated at a table, vase with tulips; this work is signed and clearly dated 1943. A subtle palette with complex coloring informs the delicate mood of the subject. There is some loss and also blistering to the paint of the subject's hair.

Newly framed. The painting is easily flipped in the frame.

For more information about Wansart, see the book “Adolphe Wansart,” by Henri Kerels, published 1955.

Painted on a large board; 37 x 29 including the frame. See less
