Gaston Bouy
"Demoiselle" - Framed Early 20th Century Pastel Woman Portrait

1905

About the Item

I apologize for the reflections on the glass of this exquisite Gaston Bouy pastel drawing. It's in a very nice frame in great condition, and I did not want to disassemble it in order to shoot the piece, because I wanted to give you the option of keeping it in the current frame. At any rate, as you can see, it is a gorgeous rendering of a turn-of-the-century (the last century, that is!) French ingenue, something this well-listed artist was best known for. You can see from the recent auction entry I included that these charming drawings are quite well thought of (and that's an AUCTION price, which is wholesale). 18.5" x 11.5 inches without frame. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art, New Orleans, with our firm guarantee of satisfaction.
