European Painter In The Chinese Style (18th Century) - Oriental Scene With A Pagoda.

European painter in the Chinese manner (18th century) - Oriental scene with pagoda.

54.5 x 72.5 cm (without frame) - 73 x 82 cm (with frame).

Oil on canvas, in carved and gilded wooden frame.

The composition, executed on a black ground in keeping with a technique widespread in European decorative painting of Oriental taste in the 18th century, depicts two figures in traditional Chinese dress in a landscape animated by a pagoda, palm trees and lush vegetation, with a bird in flight in the background. The use of deep black as the dominant chromatic field, combined with gold and red details, lends the work a decorative character fully in keeping with the chinoiseriefashion that pervaded European artistic production throughout the eighteenth century.
