Beautiful 19th century oval frame in carved, decorated and gilded wood
This is the portrait of Jenny Godin the daughter of the sculptor Eugene Godin who exhibited at the Salon de Paris the plaster portrait of his daughter in 1882. Jenny Godin née Oursel was from a Norman family and it is perhaps in this region where Adoplhe-Félix Cals settled that the latter knew her.
Cals was a pre-impressionist painter who settled in Honfleur and painted genre scenes and landscapes in this region, but also portraits, notably of his relatives and the inhabitants of the Honfleur region. We find in his portraits these qualities that made his success, this very sensitive rendering of the material, this characteristic, vibrant touch that knows how to render life and that has been described as pre-impressionist!
