Антикварне настінне панно «Ідилія» Ж. Грегоріана

A magnificent decorative wall panel on a shield with a wooden frame relief of the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The horizontally elongated composition impresses with its serenity and lyrical nature. The plot, which can be attributed to "rural idylls," depicts a sleeping young couple in the lap of nature. The painting refers the viewer to the best examples of Pre-Raphaelite art. It contains both idyllic nature and realism, and at the same time, bright decorativism in the solution of images, and the impression of "frozen time" that is so characteristic of this style. There is an obvious overlap with the works of William Hunt, William Waterhouse and John Everett Millais. The painting is framed in a shield with golden rocker elements. In the lower corner is the signature of the author, identified as Jean Gregorian (Jan Grigoryan), a French symbolist and impressionist painter of Armenian origin who worked in the genre of easel painting and interior design. Gregorian's works have repeatedly become lots at European auctions. European bidding prices for this author are set in the range of $ 2494 - $ 3159.
