Gentilly — Fine Art

Gentilly - 1952 shows a small street scene in paint. The picture uses strong brush marks and simple blocks of colour.

You get the fine art print with a hanger already on the back. A few buildings and a patch of sky sit together on the sheet. Nicolas de Stael worked in a clear, heavy style, laying paint in broad layers.

The white frame gives the picture a clean line on the wall. The plain edge keeps the paint shapes separate from the room around them. It fits well on a kitchen wall, where the painted blocks read from the table and the white frame stays quiet under the ceiling light.
