Private Collector, Madrid
French painter and engraver dedicated to genre and animal painting.
It impacts this canvas by the realism and closeness that the artist presents to this lioness and her cubs, in the foreground, with a neutral background so as not to distract us from the main thing. The size of the animals contributes to this. It is perfectly captured the expression of the lioness, protective towards her little ones, aggressive. The puppies have a sweet and affectionate expression towards the mother.
The color range goes in harmony from brown to light beige, with the force of an ambient light throughout the canvas, which is focusing mainly on animals.
