François-Marius GRANET (Entourage de)
Aix-en-Provence, 1775 - Aix-en-Provence, 1849
Interior of a convent with nuns
Oil on canvas
35 x 27.5 cm (39.5 x 31 cm with frame)
Beautiful black and gilded wood frame
Our painting is closely reminiscent of Marius Granet's "Intérieur d'un cloître avec des religieuses" (Royal Palace of Naples). The subject of a cloister interior with nuns and light "à la Granet", this fine, very clear light with a powerful play of chiaroscuro, is characteristic of Granet's art.
