"Paul Chabas (1869-1937) Woman On The Beach Art Nouveau"
Oil on panel placed on cardboard and framed by a gilded wooden frame. There is a workshop stamp at the bottom right which was much more visible when I acquired it (it is part of my private collection).
The paint is in good condition. The frame has a few small gaps in places.
Magnificent and delicate painting of a young woman at the seaside, it is certainly Brittany since the painter comes from Nantes and that he very often painted in this region.
Size of the painting: 24 x 18 cm
Size with frame: 39 x 33 cm
