Jean Durand (1894-1977) Large Art Deco Lacquer Panel Impalas Gazelles Orientalist
A stunning gold-background lacquer in the Art Deco style, signed by the artist Jean François Durand-Chapron, known as Jean Durand.

Jean Durand masterfully captured the posture and movement of this family of bovids. The surrounding vegetation is also exquisitely rendered.
