Maurice Chabas - Large Symbolist Painting - Vision Of Heavenly Souls - C.1920

Exceptional Symbolist and synthetist oil by Maurice CHABAS, whose subject would be "a vision of heavenly souls" according to the specialist painter, Myriam REISS DE PALMA, who would date it around 1920.

This is a real discovery, recent , the work was unknown until then and was not yet in the catalog raisonné. T

he works of Maurice CHABAS, symbolist painter of great renown, appear in many museums: Detroit Institute of Arts (USA), HELSINKI Ateneum Museum (Finland), Brest Fine Arts Museums, Nantes, Quimper, Petit Palais in Paris, Vincennes Town Hall ... (France)

Symbolist works of quality are very rare on the market, their price has been multiplied by 3 during the last 15 years ... where other artistic currents (and number painters ...) have seen their price drop considerably ... EXCELLENT INVESTMENT !!!
