About the Item
This fantastic British 1940's Impressionist figurative interior oil painting is by noted artist Leonard Fuller. Painted circa 1940, the colourful composition is looking into a long, busy dress department store such as Harrods, with numerous women trying on dresses and looking through rails of clothes. There are a couple of large, raised glass display containers with mannequins wearing the latest fashion. The room itself has white walls, floor and ceiling with large windows to the right with light pouring in and the colourful dresses and figures contrasts beautifully. This is a wonderful busy figurative interior Impressionist oil painting and an excellent example of Fuller's work.
