Belle Epoque oil on canvas painting of Female Nude Smoking Signed De Groux

About the Item

A very well executed and suggestive view from and accenting the "derriere" of female nude lying in a semi fetal position on a sheepskin rug in front of a roaring fireplace. The nude has her head pointing and looking upwards puffing contentedly on a cigarette. A cup and saucer for coffee are shown in the foreground. A jug and washbasin plus a towel set on a Napoleon!!! Table off to one side of the fireplace plus other furnishings in the background place the scene as a late 19th century Parisian Belle Époque salon. The painting is signed De Groux on the bottom right hand side of the canvas but without any initials it is difficult to be definitive of who the artist actually was. The paining is presented in a fully restored period frame.
