Product information "Bernard Peltriaux: Picture 'Nourriture Terrestre (The Fruits of the Earth)', framed"
Peltriaux celebrates a bygone era: the 1920s, when Paris was the artistic and stylistic centre of the world, and when not only fashion but also the role of women changed. His elegantly dressed ladies are all modern, even charismatic women who clearly know very well how different they are from the generations of their mothers and grandmothers - and how much they will open up new paths and opportunities in life for their daughters one day. This also and especially applies to their self-confident approach to sensuality and sexuality: the title of the painting 'Nourriture Terrestre' (The Fruits of the Earth) alludes directly to a famous work by the French writer André Gide, which promised the young generation liberation from confinement and constraints after the First World War. Original: oil on canvas. Authentic reproduction transferred to 100% cotton using the fine art giclée process and mounted on a stretcher frame. Limited and numbered edition of 199 copies. Stretcher frame format 45 x 60 cm (H/W). Framed in a sophisticated solid wood frame with shadow gap. Format 49.5 x 64.5 cm (H/W).
