LATE 18th CENTURY SMALL PAINTING WITH A GENRE SCENE

About the Item

A delightful small painting, framed in a contemporary frame in carved and gilded wood, depicting a lively genre scene. In the background, an Italian garden opens up to reveal two young women dressed in elegant 18th-century clothes, engaged in conversation. A young man, sitting on a finely crafted marble balustrade, attracts attention, while one of the two damsels, with dark hair, delicately holds his leg. The painting, characterized by a harmonious play of chiaroscuro, is of extraordinary workmanship and capable of enriching any environment with taste and elegance. It is attributed to an anonymous painter of French origin, active around the end of the 18th century. Measurements: H x W x D overall 51 x 42 x 5cm; H x W work only 35 x 27cm
