Description: The complicated folly of romance . . . "Le Soupirant" (The Suitor) by Jean-Pierre Clement. Antique French surrealist renaissance-inspired oil painting on canvas; signed by the artist and dated, 1964; with note on reverse in French (translated) "Made in Paris in 1964". Here is a painting with composition and handling very reminiscent of the old Italian and Dutch masters of the Renaissance era. Far more realized and intricate than most of the artist's work, this piece is a tour-de-force of sumptuous details and realist textures. Like a poem, a symphony of ancient symbols richly populate a complex landscape that's simultaneously literal, metaphorical, and psychological -- perhaps representing the many negotiations and complications of finding romantic love. Overall condition is very good: some slight abrasion to canvas (as indicated in listing photos); slight wear to frame. Artwork presents beautifully! A unique and astounding one-of-a-kind original painting. FAST & FREE SHIPPING! 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK! OVER 1000 POSITIVE REVIEWS!
