About the Item

Beautiful painting in gouache technique depicting a distinguished young lady. The noblewoman presents a pose of rare elegance, with one hand resting on a planter and the other holding a closed fan. The grace, period, style and quality all point to the production of a great artist from the Flemish area in the second half of the 19th century: Alfred Émile Léopold Stevens to whom we can attribute the painting. This painting, never before on the market, comes from a private collection and is beautified by an impressive antique frame in gilded wood. Every item of our Gallery, upon request, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Sabrina Egidi official Expert in Italian furniture for the Chamber of Commerce of Rome and for the Rome Civil Courts. Alfred Émile Léopold Stevens (11 May 1823 – 24 August 1906) was a Belgian very important painter, known for his paintings of elegant modern women. After gaining attention early in his career with a social realist painting depicting the plight of poor vagrants, he achieved great critical and popular success with his scenes of upper-middle class Parisian life. In their realistic style and careful finish, his works reveal the influence of 17th-century Dutch genre painting. Under existing legislation, any artwork created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died can requires a license for export regardless of the work’s market price. The shipping may require additional handling days to require the license according to the destination of the artwork.
