Oil on Canvas Titled "Nicolina" — Basque Artist, Late 19th Century

About the Item

"Nicolina" – Late 19th Century Oil on Canvas by a Basque Artist A captivating and intimate oil on canvas titled "Nicolina," attributed to a Basque artist of the late 19th century. This enchanting composition features a classically inspired nude figure adorned with a delicate floral crown, holding a candelabrum aloft in one hand while draped in soft white fabric. At her side stands a poised tiger, evoking a sense of mysticism and theatrical elegance. The dark, atmospheric background contrasts beautifully with the luminous tones of the figure and her feline companion, creating a striking visual harmony. Set within its original carved and gilt-accented wooden frame, the piece measures 32 x 24 cm and carries a subtle inscription of the title at the bottom. The canvas remains well-stretched and stable, with only a gentle patina and minor age-appropriate wear visible—attesting to its careful preservation over the decades. A fine example of 19th-century European symbolism and romanticism, this work offers both artistic refinement and timeless intrigue—ideal for discerning collectors or interiors seeking a conversation piece with historical depth. Dimensions: 32 x 24 cm (including frame) Medium: Oil on canvas Origin: Basque Country, late 19th century Condition: Good overall; stable painted surface with minor patina and light signs of age.
