Lison Favargerthe boulistes, a game of pétanque
About the Item
Work on canvas
Dimensions with frame :90 x 132 x 2.5 cm
This captivating work depicts an urban scene where a group of people are gathered for a game of pétanque. The figures, seen from behind, are engrossed in conversation about the game of pétanque and the next throw of the boule, evoking a sense of community and cooperation. Earthy tones and touches of gray create a wintry ambience, while the bare trees in the background reinforce this feeling. The angular lines and geometric shapes of the structures create a striking contrast with the fluidity of the human silhouettes, emphasizing the interaction between man and his urban environment. The subtle use of light and shadow accentuates the realism of the scene. The painting invites the viewer to reflect on the dynamism of city life and the complexity of human interaction.
