Parisian Flower Market by Pencke



Oil Painting
Size: 24"x36" Unfr.

Flower markets in Paris were very popular and held in open areas attended by the female members of the growers. The oldest market was established in 1808 and the stands were open twice a week. For a location, 25 cents a day was paid to the town of Paris.

(Just thought I'd add a little historical background).

Rarely does Pencke change his pallet, but in order to convey a delicate,
atmospheric setting for the flower stands, he wisely chose to mix a pallet of pastel colored paints for The Parisian Flower Market.


Sale Price: $375 Unfr.
