Andrée Perotti – Gallant Scene in the Style of the 18th Century

Andrée Perotti – Gallant Scene in the Taste of the 18th Century. Oil on canvas signed at the bottom right Andrée Perotti. The composition depicts an elegant scene of entertainment in a rural setting. In front of a half-timbered inn covered in roses, a couple dressed in 18th-century fashion strolls while other characters take their places at a table set under the trees. A carriage and several figures animate the background. The artist employs a bright and refined palette dominated by soft greens, pinks, and ochres. The whole is in the tradition of French gallant scenes inspired by Watteau and Rococo art. French decorative work from the 20th century. Canvas mounted on a frame. Overall good condition with slight wear consistent with age. H46 X 60cm.
