French Tempera on Canvas Four Panels Folding Screen with Seascape View

Early 20th Century

About the Item

This French early 20th Century folding screen is made up of four canvases entirely painted with textured tempera featuring a marine landscape view in full Louis XV style, reminiscences of romantic atmospheres with certain moods from the past. The serene seascape is animated with characters and boats on an architectural scene with a perched castle and a harbor in the background. This fine art decorative piece is signed J. de Greling, dating back to 1900 circa is inspired by 18th Century Italian views. This screen can be used as an unusual room divider or it can also be hung on the wall to have a huge painting when fully unfolded. It is an extremely decorative piece of furniture or fine artwork, presenting a wide variety of colors with relaxed and natural palette as well as a very lively touch. The texture of the painting on the canvas and the attention to detail are exceptional as well as the finishing at the bottom with faux paneling achieved with a trompe l'oeil effect. Each Canvas is mounted on wooden frames, hinged to allow total unfolding and fixed with upholstery nails. Very good overall condition, minor wear considering age and use, stable painting, original patina. Measures: H. 160 cm, W. 50 cm each panel.

  • Antique Oil on Canvas Painting "Dancing Nymphs" Mythological Landscape Scene
    Located in Firenze, IT
    A luxuriant forest is the romantic and lyrical landscape where the dance of the nude nymphs takes place in this joyful 19th Century antique oil on canvas painting featuring a mythological scene. Dance of the Nymphs and Naiads is a myth inspired by the tales of ancient Greece and ancient Rome, a subject already much loved in the Renaissance period as an allegory of rebirth - as in one of the most famous paintings in the world the Spring by Sandro Botticelli- then reproduced throughout the neoclassicism by academic painters -due to the renewed interest in classical artworks following the discovery of archaeological sites- and taken up later, with ecological purposes and meanings, also by the Barbizon school and Impressionist artists. The present artwork – signed Vagner low left and datable to the second half of the 19th century - is closely inspired by an important work by the great Camille Corot, which is now housed at the Musée d'Orsay (Paris). This historical oil on canvas painting, featuring a joyful scene with the three graces and other dancing nymphs...
