About the Item

M. Leveque (French, 20th Century) Place de la Concorde, Paris Oil on canvas, circa 1980 25 x 28 inches (framed) This vibrant view of the Place de la Concorde in Paris captures the bustling life and atmosphere of one of the city’s most celebrated landmarks. At the centre is the magnificent Fontaine des Mers, its cascades rendered with lively brushwork, while beyond rises the monumental Luxor Obelisk, a gift from Egypt in the 1830s that remains a defining feature of the square. The architectural backdrop of the Hôtel de Crillon and the Hôtel de la Marine situates the scene firmly within the grandeur of Paris’s historic heart. Painted with broad, impressionistic strokes, the artist animates the square with colourful figures in motion, their bright coats enlivening the composition and evoking the vibrancy of Parisian life. The fluid handling of paint and expressive use of colour are hallmarks of M. Leveque, a painter of mid- to late-20th century Paris street scenes, whose works found popularity with both collectors and visitors seeking vivid reminders of the City of Light. The canvas is presented in a carved gilt frame that enhances its decorative appeal. At once atmospheric and evocative, this painting embodies both the timeless beauty of Parisian landmarks and the lively spirit of the modern city.

Pietro Sansalvadore was active during the early to middle of the 20th century. He painted in an Impressionist manner and on a small scale.
