"Gypsies at the Gate" – Original Oil on Canvas by Steve LeBailly (20" x 16")
Elevate your space with this evocative mid-to-late 20th-century original oil painting by Seattle-based artist Steve LeBailly (1947–2024). Titled "Gypsies at the Gate," this piece features a romanticized scene set against the historic Alcázar de Sigüenza in Guadalajara, Spain.
LeBailly utilizes a masterful impasto technique, applying thick, textured layers of paint to bring the weathered stone towers and rugged landscape to life. The foreground figures add a narrative depth typical of the artist's travel-inspired repertoire. The work is professionally mounted on a wooden stretcher and includes the artist’s original business card and handwritten authentication on the reverse. A perfect addition for collectors of architectural studies or European-inspired impressionist art.
Dimensions:
Height: 20 inches (50.8 cm)
Width: 16 inches (40.64 cm)
Depth: 1 inch (2.54 cm) gallery-wrapped stretcher bars
Condition:
The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The paint layer is stable with no signs of cracking (craquelure) or loss, even in the heavily textured impasto areas. The colors remain vibrant and true to the artist's original palette. The canvas is taut on its original wooden stretcher, which shows minimal wear consistent with age and careful handling.
Provenance:
This piece comes from a private collection and is fully authenticated by the artist’s hand-signed business card and detailed inscriptions on the reverse of the canvas. It was created by Stephen B. LeBailly, a prolific Pacific Northwest artist known for his historical and travel-inspired compositions.
A captivating blend of history and texture, "Gypsies at the Gate" offers a window into the storied architecture of Guadalajara through the lens of a dedicated 20th-century traveler. Whether displayed as a standalone statement or as part of a gallery wall, this original work brings a sense of Old World mystery and artisanal craftsmanship to the modern interior.
