The Country Kitchen, by the Hearth Antique French Oil on Canvas

1920 - 1940
Description

Who'd have thought blue would be the best colour with which to represent the warmth and the peacefulness of a country kitchen? And yet, it works, perfectly: we get a real sense of groundedness as we observe the solidity of the wooden furniture, the simple decorations - and feel right at home.

Dating from circa 1940, this unsigned oil on canvas is a work by Raoul Pouillat (born 1902), acquired from his estate.

Pouillat was a sculptor as well as a painter. Another still life by the artist is in the Centre national des arts plastiques, a French institution established under the Ministry of Culture and Communication to promote the creation of visual arts.

Measuring 50 x 61 cm, the overall size framed of the artwork in a simple, more recent frame is 62 x 73 cm.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
