Oil On Canvas, Lucien Mignon, Portrait Of A Child

Oil on canvas by Lucien MIGNON, Portrait of a Child. Charming portrait of a child painted by Lucien Mignon, an artist renowned for the sensitivity of his figures and the delicacy of his brushstrokes. The child is depicted in three-quarter view, with a dreamy and slightly melancholic gaze, in an intimate and warm atmosphere. The palette, dominated by warm tones of reds, ochres, and browns, is enlivened by subtle pinkish hues on the face, lending the whole a great expressive softness. The brushwork is free and vibrant, typical of figurative painting from the first quarter of the 20th century, where the artist prioritized emotion and light over academic detail. The deliberately blurred background highlights the subject and accentuates the psychological depth of the portrait. Dimensions without frame: 41 x 33 cm. Dimensions without frame: 54 x 46 cm.
