Description
Original oil painting after or attributed to the great Eugene de Blaas (1843-1931, Italian). Artwork features young woman seated with a spanish fan. De Blaas is known for his hyperrealistic art.
Eugene attended the Academy in Rome, where he later became a professor, followed by the Academy in Venice. His art was well received in England, allowing him to exhibit consistently at the Royal Academy, the Grafton Gallery and the New Gallery between 1875 and 1892. The most frequently handled subjects in Eugene de Blaas’ art are Venetian washerwomen, street vendors and seamstresses who are striking in their youthful and unadorned beauty. He depicts them with photographic realism and a high finish.
