Lot 422

Description

Marie-Augustin Zwiller, 
French 1850-1939- 

Portrait of a lady, half-length, wearing a red shawl; 

oil on canvas, signed 'A ZWILLER' (lower left), 68 x 47.5 cm. (unframed). 

Provenance: 
A Private Collection of French Naturalist Painters. 

Note:

The motif of a woman in a red wrap also reappears in Zwiller's oeuvre, as in a portrait of a lady reading which sold at Issaly-Pichon, Cannes, on 16 March 2013, lot 207 (€2,700 hammer).
