About the Item

A beautiful 19th century French japonisme oil-on-canvas painting of a Geisha holding a fan. This beautiful Geisha is modeled after the Japonisme movement brought up by French artists integrating Japanese artistic styles into their art work. During the mid-1870s, the demand for Japanese decorative arts, fashions, woodblock prints, screens, porcelains and the like, became quite the craze among well-to-do Europeans. Artists took note and drew inspiration from the Japanese aesthetic. It became known as Japonisme, or the French ‘Japonisme’, and you can see these influences in many works from the mid to late 19th century. Some painters opted to integrate eastern themes and techniques in their work from the comfort of their studios, posing beautiful Geisha's, such as this one, wearing magnificently hand-painted komodos' with vibrant reds and gorgeous flowers throughout the outerwear. circa 1880.
