A captivating figurative composition by Philippe de Rougemont (1891–1965), executed in oil on canvas and signed by the artist. The motif presents a striking pairing — a woman and a clown — rendered with expressive nuance and a distinctly French sensibility.

De Rougemont’s work often blends theatricality with emotional subtlety, and this piece reflects that duality: poised yet dramatic, intimate yet performative. The interplay of character and gesture gives the painting a compelling narrative tension.

Presented framed and in good vintage condition, with natural signs of age consistent with its era.
