Tuscan Figurative Genre Scene painting 20th century oil on canvas

20th

About the Item

The artist of this painting is unknown but it can be ascribe to a Tuscan movement of the 20th century inspired by 19th century art like Verismo (as we can deduce by the clean and not artificial composition of the genre scene chosen as the subject) and Macchiaioli (as we gather by the painting manner). It represents a joyful moment among some children (three boys and a girl) who are in front of a fountain to take water, as we can see by the several baskets that they are holding. By the color of the sky, by the palette chosen to render the light atmosphere and by their clothes, it's possible to assume that it is a summertime or late spring afternoon. The sizes of the painting, oil on canvas, with the frame is 52 x 41.5 cm.

  • French Folk Art Naive Oil Painting Workers in Vineyard, Les Vignes aux Gitans
    Located in Surfside, FL
    Max Savy Oil on canvas painting depicting a village scene with winemakers in a vineyard by artist Max Savy (French, b. 1918). Signed in the lower right. Frame measures 24.5 inches x 28 inches. canvas is 18 X 22 inches., Perfect for a wine cellar or cave. Max Savy (French, 1918-2010) painted scenes of everyday life in the French Corbieres region, which garnered much success during his life. Though the artist remained silent about his early life, it's known his father instilled in him a belief in the humanist socialism philosophy of French Socialist Party leader, Jean Jaures. In 1938, at age 20, he moved to Carcassonne to attend school. There, he married and settled into a teaching position, joining the French Resistance during World War II and earning the Cross of the Combatant. After the war, he created the work for which he is most admired. Max Savy paintings are part of France's heritage collection, and the artist became a knight of the National Order of Merit in 1973. Max Savy's paintings and artworks include scenes of peasants in the fields. Max Savy was active/lived in France. Max Savy is known for folk art style painting of village architecture, vintners, figures in landscape, wine makers, marine scenes. His work is similar in style to the naive, folk art paintings of Michel Delacroix and Fanch Ledan. This is quite similar to a work I had titled "Les Vignes Aux Gitans" (the gypsy grape vines) So i assume this is also a vineyard painting...
