Cardinal, dated 1946, depicting a seated female nude in an intimate interior setting. The sitter is shown partially draped in a dark robe, holding a red rose, with a vase of flowers placed quietly in the background. The composition has a distinctly French boudoir atmosphere — soft, sensual, and painterly, with muted greens, deep shadows, and warm skin tones creating a romantic mid-century mood.
Painted just after World War II, the piece carries that wonderful French interior feeling: elegant, private, and atmospheric rather than overly formal. The contrast between the dark robe, pale figure, red flower, and softened room gives the work depth and quiet drama.
Presented in a gilt frame with a pale inner liner, this is a striking decorative painting for a bedroom, dressing room, gallery wall, artist’s studio, or layered antique interior.
