About the Item

An exceptionally vibrant original oil painting of chrysanthemums, estimated late 1800s. The movement of the flowers contrasts beautifully with a charmingly naiive vase and table. Year: c. late 19th century Canvas size: 56cm x 38cm Framed size: 69cm x 52cm Framing: Decorative hand-finished frame in keeping with the style of the painting. Signature: Signed by the artist “A. Fontaine” Detailed Condition: The canvas has been patched on the reverse in three places and the painted surface retouched in those areas. Mild craquelure to the painted surface, which do not detract form the stunning vibrancy of the artwork. The artist A. Fontaine has no online record. However, the verso of the artwork presents a stamp from “Moirinat, Paris”, a renowned high-quality art shop located in the Faubourg Saint Honoré from 1864 to 1923. This allows us to estimate the age of the painting.
