19th Century French Floral Still Life Oil Painting Signed Adeline Gautier
$1,900
About
This antique floral still life painting, crafted in France circa 1880, presents a charming and decorative composition centered on a terracotta vessel overflowing with blooms. The arrangement features abundant sprays of golden mimosa alongside soft white and lavender hydrangeas, rendered with lively, textured brushwork that gives the surface a rich, almost impasto quality. The warm earthen tones of the vase contrast beautifully with the soft green ground, creating a balanced and inviting palette well suited for both traditional and transitional interiors. Executed in oil on board, the painting displays a pleasing spontaneity and painterly softness, with visible brushwork adding depth and movement throughout the composition. The work is signed in the lower right “A. Gautier,” attributed to a late 19th century French decorative painter working in the tradition of floral still life. It is presented in its original giltwood frame, richly detailed with layered moldings, a beaded inner border, and an outer frieze of finely cast foliate ornament, enhancing the overall elegance and presence. This antique painting remains in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with minor surface wear consistent with its age. The gilt frame shows light wear and patina, contributing to its authentic character. Dimensions: 14.5”W x 2”D x 16.5”H
