About the Item

Large mid-century post-impressionist female oil painting on canvas by French artist, Louis-Frédéric Dupuis (1909-2003), signed in the lower right. This is a delightful, eye catching portrait of a young woman in a pretty blue dress with a straw hat. She is clutching a small posy and looks to the right, away from the artist, deep in thought. It's an unusual painting, given it's capable but unpretentious simplicity and is starkly gutsy in its rendition. Although the canvas is smooth to the touch, the artist has used a myriad of colours to build structure and depth, making excellent use of light and shade. The hands are well crafted, obviously by an extremely capable artist. The model's dress is delightful, a crisp cool, almost duck egg blue which against a grey background works very well and sits easily on the eye. This stunning, sultry piece is certainly not dated and would fit into most modern decors. Louis-Frédéric Dupuis was the son of the well known French painter, Louis Dupuis (1862-1951). From 1927 to 1934, he was a student at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris where he was a pupil of Jean-Pierre Laurens. From 1931, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français . He was awarded a second-class medal in 1936, then a first-class medal two years later, the same year that he was awarded a gold medal at the Salon Meda. Condition: This painting is in good condition. However, you should expect minor imperfections throughout associated with age and wear such as minor areas of darkened varnish etc. The frame is the original but it has had some renovations and a previous mild woodworm infestation which has had a 20 year treatment. There are losses at the corners of the frame, again imperfections throughout. WORRIED ABOUT TARIFFS? We send all our paintings with the correct paperwork to ensure Tariff Free entry into the USA.
