About

Charming French cityscape painting depicting the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, executed circa 1920 in a soft, impressionistic style. The composition captures the monument at the center of a lively boulevard scene, with early automobiles, cyclists, and strolling figures animating the foreground, all bathed in a warm, atmospheric light.
The artist employs loose, fluid brushwork and a luminous palette of golden yellows, soft greens, and muted earth tones to evoke the movement and elegance of Paris in the early 20th century. The surrounding Haussmann architecture is suggested with painterly restraint, allowing the iconic arch to remain the focal point while conveying the energy of the avenue.
The artwork is set in a more recent gilt wood frame with a clean, classic profile, and is presented with a finished backing, ready for immediate display. The antique painting is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with minor wear to the frame.
This piece would make a sophisticated addition to a study, hallway, or living room, bringing a refined touch of Parisian charm and timeless appeal to the space.
Dimensions: 16″W x 12″H
