The composition, the colors and the deft brushstrokes - makes this painting an enchanting beauty. The palette of this painting is very fine, and the colorful details subtly rendered.
It's an original oil on board, still life of lemons randomly placed on a table along with a plate, bowl and jar on a table with blue and white checks table cloth.
The composition is spot on, the artist has captured the deliciousness of summer in this work
Signed to top right
This lovely painting would add beauty in any beach house or ocean front home, mid century modern or farm house, shabby chic or contemporary home
L. Bertrand PY (1895-1973) was a French artist born in Belfort, France. At a very young age, he showed serious inclinations for drawing and painting. Based in Paris, he pursued fine classical studies which he later stopped rather abruptly to devote himself exclusively to painting. He entered the National School of Fine Arts by being deceptive about his age.
Frequenting galleries such as the Louvre Museum, Py developed his skills by sketching the works of Rembrandt, Vermeer, Velasquez, Chardin and Delacroix among others. His work today exhibits this broad spectrum of influence, from the renaissance to post-impressionism through his unique style of neo-realism.
He began exhibiting his work at the age of 25 at the Salon of French Artists and in 1929 became a member of the Salon d’Automne. He also exhibited at the Armant Drouant Gallery, the Simonson Gallery, the Galerie Bernhiem and the Petit Palais. He held sold shows at the Maison des Artistes and the Bassano Gallery. He died in Paris in 1973.
