Edouard CORTES (1882-1969)
Paris: Place de la Madeleine, terminus of the Madeleine-Bastille omnibus
Pastel on paper mounted on canvas
Signed
53 x 81.3 cm
A certificate from the Comité Edouard Cortès will be given to the buyer.
Note: Édouard Cortès, a recognized master of Parisian views, excels here in the representation of the Place de la Madeleine at the terminus of the Madeleine-Bastille omnibus, an emblematic motif in his work. This large-scale pastel highlights her subtle treatment of urban light, the precision of the silhouettes and the liveliness characteristic of Belle Époque Paris.
The pastel technique lends the scene a particularly vibrant atmosphere.
