Attrib. Albert André (1869-1954) - 1893 Oil, Washing In The Ganges
Located in Corsham, GB
A masterful French Impressionist oil showing a beautiful woman in a sari and metal bracelets, standing and praying at the steps of the Ganges. Another woman can be seen washing cloth in the waters to her right. The artist's use of earthy tones adds a richness to this beautiful scene. The painting shows the artist to be confident with the deft brushstrokes of the impressionist era and uses wonderful economy to capture the beauty of the woman's face.
The artist has signed in the lower left corner. At the reverse of the canvas there are several canvas stamps. The first is an airport stamp in Hindi, dated 1893. This is in keeping with the stamp on the stretchers from Lefranc et Cie, a Parisian art supply...

An elegant and sophisticated decorative touch in any living space, portrait paintings have remained popular throughout the years and are widely loved pieces of art for display in many homes today.
Portrait paintings are at least as old as ancient Egypt, where realistic, lifelike depictions of the recently deceased — commonly known as “mummy portraits” — were painted on wooden panels and affixed to mummies as part of the burial tradition.
For centuries, painters have used portraiture as a means of expressing a subject’s nobility, societal status and authority. Portraits were given as gifts in Renaissance Europe, and a portrait artist might have been commissioned to help mark a significant occasion such as a wedding or a promotion to high office. Prior to the advent of photography, which eventually replaced painted portraits as a quicker and more efficient way of capturing a person’s essence, the subject of a portrait had to sit for hours until the painter had finished. And during the 18th century in particular, if an artist commissioned for a portrait struggled with how to adequately memorialize and capture a subject’s likeness, sometimes a portrait painting wasn’t completed for up to a year.
Whether it’s part of the gallery-style approach to your living-room or dining-room walls or merely inspiration as you devise an eye-grabbing color scheme in your home, a portrait painting is a timeless decorative object for any interior. A landscape painting or sculpture might give you the kind of insight into a specific region of the world or a different culture that you can ascertain only through art. Similarly, when you take the time to learn about the subject of a portrait painting that you bring into your home — the sitter’s history, the relationship between the sitter and the artist should one exist, the story of how the portrait came to be — that work can become intensely personal in addition to its place as an object for an art-hungry corner of your apartment or house.
