About the Item

Charming portrait of a young woman by Léon Launay. She is holding a flower in her right hand. This woman is standing in profile. The work is sketched in graphite and red chalk. The color brought by the sanguine gives life to this woman. This woman facing the rose, echoes the ephemeral beauty of the woman, as expressed by Ronsard in his poem "Mignonne allons voir si la Rose". A kind of melancholy emerges from the eyes of this woman and the slight smile she lets appear. The drawing is of good quality. Léon Launay is a 20th century artist. This painter is mainly known for his landscapes. He also painted some portraits of women. Frame dimensions : H : 22, 3 Inch W : 15, 5 Inch.
