About the Item
An exquisite example of the work of French genre scene painter, Alexandre Soldé (1822–1893). The scene shows two ladies of society, dressed in elegant attire of the late 18th Century. They are strolling past a ramshackle, cottage with their dog. An old woman peers outer of her window, surprised to see such elegant women, wandering in such a rural setting. One woman holds a dainty parasol, the other appears to be checking their directions on a map. The painting has the beautiful Romanticism of early 19th Century French painters, harking back to a time of opulent luxury of the 18th Century. The softly falling light casts dappled shadows on the scene and picks outer the taffeta and other rich fabrics of the women's clothes in crisp, vibrant detail.
The artist has signed to the lower left corner and the painting has been presented in a fine 19th Century frame with piastre strap work at the outer edge, fluted cove with acanthus leaf motifs at the inner corners and beaded strap work at the inner window.
On re-lined canvas.
This copy has excellent form and attention to the colour palette used by Lawrence. The deep cerulean blue of the sky and intense orange of the sash of the child on the right, particularly mirror the colours of the original.
The painting is unsigned and presented in a very fine 20th Century gilt frame with gold slip with circular inner window.
On mill board.
