About

This beautiful antique oil on canvas was painted in France circa 1880. The composition features a shipwrecked boat on the shore and a single sailor. The piece is set inside its original frame and is signed on the bottom left G. Clairin. Georges Jules Victor Clairin (11 September 1843, Paris ??? Pouldu, Clohars-Carno??t 2 September 1919) was a French Oriental painter and illustrator. He was influenced by oriental painting and Moorish architecture, and visited North Africa many times, in particular Morocco and Egypt. In Paris, he led the life of a socialite, and befriended the glamorous actress Sarah Bernhardt, his friend for 50 years, and is today best known for his ‘in costume’ and informal intimate portraits of her. 50″W x 33″H SKU: 4-999
