About the Item

A beautiful oil painting on canvas by the French artist Georges Gerbier, depicting a tremendously vivid and alive street scene from Paris in the 20th Century with a view of "Palais Garnier" by "Le Grand Hotel" at the square in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, at the junction of the Boulevard des Italiens, Boulevard des Capucines, Avenue de l'Opéra, Rue Auber, Rue Halévy, Rue de la Paix and Rue du Quatre-Septembre. A busy street sight filled with life on a busy day with people walking alongside the bustling cars and trolleys of Paris. People are depicted throughout the streets and the lights from the cafes and stores flicker and reflect on the wet ground, illuminating the scene in a magical way. The details are magnificent as Gerbier captures the architecture of Paris so beautifully; you can feel the energy of the day and the excitement. This painting is signed lower left and it comes housed in an ornate gold tone giltwood frame with green velvet liner with hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 7.5 x 9.5 inches Frame measures 10.5 x 12.5 inches Georges Gerbier was a French painter born in 1906, known for impressionist street scenes depicting popular locations in Europe. With the use of vibrant colors and impressionistic brushwork done with both whim and daring, his work is comparable to those of Jean Salabet, Jules Herve, Antoine Blanchard, and Edouard Cortes. Gerbier was mostly active and lived in France, and he died in 1983. PROVENANCE: Private collection New Braunfels, TX; Private Collection Manhattan, New York; Lilac Gallery Collection. The piece will be stamped from Lilac Gallery on its verso.
