French Art Deco Portrait 1920s Oil Painting
A captivating French Art Deco–era portrait, possibly portraying a dancer, silent film star, or flapper girl.
Her striking dark eye makeup reflects the fashionable French style of the 1920s, characterised by smudged eyeliner and richly shaded eyeshadow in hues of brown and charcoal grey. These tones were generously applied to both the upper and lower lids, then softly blended to create a distinctive, “hollowed-out” allure.
Painted in oil on canvas and presented in an elegant Montparnasse frame.
Condition:
Some areas of craquelure visible on the paint surface (see images), otherwise in good, sound, and original condition.
