Paris Painting by François Claver, Post-Impressionist, 20th Century

About the Item

A vibrant Post-Impressionist painting of a Parisian flower market at Place de la Madeleine, signed by François Claver and dated on the reverse frame. The scene captures the essence of everyday beauty, with colorful flower stands set against the majestic neoclassical façade of the Sainte Madeleine church, just visible on the corner. Painted circa 1950-60, this work reflects Claver’s passion for Paris, the city of his birth and his greatest artistic inspiration. With sweeping brushwork and vivid hues, Claver transforms a common urban moment into a lyrical composition — a hallmark of the Post-Impressionist tradition. The artist's signature, “F. Clave,” appears clearly on the lower edge of the canvas. The piece is mounted in a wooden frame and retains a strong presence despite minor structural wear due to age. Canvas size: 46 x 39 cm Frame size: 56 x 64 x 7 cm (22.05 x 25.2 x 2.76 in) This is a perfect piece for collectors of French art, lovers of Parisian scenes, or anyone drawn to the emotional depth of Post-Impressionism. Claver (1918–1961), educated at the École des Beaux-Arts, traveled across Europe but always returned to the light and charm of Paris. His work was evaluated in the Art Fair Magazine "DER KUNSTHANDEL" in July 1957, with a tiny excerpt: "...François Claver, French, born 1918. Paris is his true passion. It is the passionate affection of a full person.... He paints like hundreds, like millions of people who enjoy to paint and want to know... His firmness is clear in his command of the methods. Lord, he employs no measures with which he is ineffective. He is the real descendant of Impressionism in terms of making music with colors and shapes. The intricacies and impacts lurk about all angles scattered across the photographs. In a nutshell
