About the Item

Subtle conte is used in a sculptural manner to render a delicate study of a child. The artwork has been completed on a piece of pale rose wove, which perfectly complements the rich tone of the conte. The artwork is signed in the bottom right-hand corner. Affixed to the reverse of the artwork is a label for the Royal Society of Portrait Painters exhibition in 1982. This label contains the artwork's name and medium, as well as the address of Matania. The artwork is well presented in a wood frame with a laid mount. On wove.

L V Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950) Portrait of a young woman, 1928, oval pastel
By Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola
Located in Paris, FR
Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950) Portrait of a young woman Pastel on paper 38 x 28 cm (oval) Framed under glass in a vintage framing : 45 x 35 cm A label on the back "1928 Portrait de femme Etude au pastel de Guirand de Scévola" (see photographs please) This pastel study is of course not signed, as the label on the back of the frame gives its attribution to Guirand de Scévola and, equally interestingly, the date 1928, but in fact the artist's style and execution are immediately recognisable without the need for a signature. This type of woman with a bun is typical of the models the artist loved. Her mysterious air recalls his Symbolist period, and pastel is hisr preferred medium because it lends itself to all the characteristics typical of his art. Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola ( 1871 – 1950) was a French painter. He was student of Fernand Cormon and Pierre Dupuis...
