About the Item
A stunning and atmospheric painting by Marius Petit (1882-1960). It dates from the 1920s, the height of the art deco period. Glorious, scintillating and beautifully coloured; it is a delight to live with.

I sense fireworks in the background - maybe there is a celebration going on in the castle grounds where the scene is surely taking place? Depicted is quite possibly the "Bassin des Enfants" at the Versailles castle. The oil on canvas presented here is unsigned, but had never left the artist's family: its previous owner was Petit's daughter Madeleine,
