This is an original French oil painting signed and dated 1944 by the artist. The artwork, created in oil on board, depicts a serene still life of a basket of fruit, cheese, and bread on a table. Mid-20th-century European art students and regional masters frequently painted physical copies of Paul Cézanne's famous works as a crucial exercise to study his complex use of perspective, geometric forms, and color theory. This is one of those pieces. The painting measures 21.5" x 16.5" and has a depth of 0.30 inches, which accounts for the board's thickness. It is truly a beautiful piece.
