Description

A wonderfully sunny art deco period view of Provence by Yvonne Giraud-Hanriot (1898-1960). Yvonne showed works at Exhibition of Colonial Artists of 1932, with her paintings finding acclaim in the The Chicago Tribune and the New York Daily News.

She exhibited at the Salon des Tuileries, the Salon of Decorative Artists, the International Exhibition of Arts and Sciences, and in 1937 the City of Paris acquired one of her landscapes. Our sunny mediterranean scene dates from this very period.

Yvonne was also exceptional as a painter of animals, and exhibited at the Galerie Edgar Brandt – the first gallery of the decorative arts, inaugurated in 1925 – alongside Art Deco masters such as Paul Jouve, André Margat and Edouard-Marcel Sandoz.

Our oil on panel measures 43 x 55 cm and is signed at the lower right. Presented in its original frame, overall framed size is 60 x 68 cm.

Date of Manufacture

Skippings Fine Arts has dated this French Landscape Oil Painting to the 1930s.

French Impressionist landscape painting focuses on capturing light, atmospheric conditions, and everyday scenes with visible brushstrokes and natural colour palettes.

Artists typically used wooden panels, often mahogany or artist board, prepared with gesso or priming layers before applying oil paints.

Authentication involves examining the panel material, pigment aging, artist signatures, framing construction, and sometimes ultraviolet light analysis.

Pair the painting with a minimalist or classic wooden frame and hang it on a neutral-toned wall to highlight its texture and tonal palette.

Keep the artwork out of direct sunlight, maintain stable room humidity and temperature, and avoid touching the painted surface directly.
