Léa Lafugie
"The Laotian Fruit Seller", Léa Lafugie (1890-1972)

Circa 1940s

About the Item

Léa Lafugie (1890–1972) was a painter who traveled extensively across Asia. She was renowned for her portraits. She studied at the School of Decorative Arts, followed by the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. With an adventurous and curious spirit, she set off in 1925 on a journey through Asia, visiting countries such as China, India, Tibet, Japan, and the Indochinese Peninsula. During her travels, she created numerous spontaneous portraits of women, capturing them spontaneously. For reference, we have included a similar painting "The Laotian Bathers" dating back to 1949, which allows us to pinpoint an approximate date for our painting. - Oil on panel - Signed at the bottom right - Framed - Circa 1940s Dimensions : H : 46 cm ; W : 55.5 cm (without frame) H : 18 in ; W : 22 in (without frame) H : 66 cm ; W : 75 cm (with frame) H : 26 in ; W : 30 in (with frame)
