Place Pigalle — Fine Art

Place Pigalle by Maurice Utrillo shows a busy street corner with tall buildings and a clear sky. The brushwork sits in short, uneven strokes that build up the walls and the paving. The paint looks layered, as if each pass added a little more weight to the scene.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. The frame comes in white, wood, dark wood or black, and the edge it makes sits right against these rough painted surfaces. A black frame keeps the outlines of the buildings sharp. A white frame lets the pale sky stay open.

It fits on a hallway wall near the stairs. From the landing you see the street shapes first, then the small marks in the paint as you pass by.
