Jean Salabet, Oil on Canvas, Place de la Republique, Paris, Signed
This captivating 1953 oil on canvas painting by Jean Salabet vividly captures the bustling ambiance of Place de la Republique in Paris, showcasing the artist's signature palette of cool greys and blues enlivened with dabs of bright color and impressionistic brushwork. Salabet, a postwar French painter, is celebrated for his atmospheric Parisian street scenes, which immortalize the spirit and architecture of mid-century France. Painted two years before his passing, this work is a rare and poignant glimpse into the artist's mature style, where lively market-goers, vintage cars, and the monumental Marianne statue converge under a glistening Parisian sky. The painting's reverse bears the original stretcher stamp and title inscription, affirming its vintage authenticity. With its balance of historical charm and painterly vigor, this work exemplifies Salabet's contribution to 20th-century Parisian genre painting. On lower right: J. Salabet, Paris, 1953.
