La Pastiche The White House with Athenian Silver Frame
Description
20" X 24"" The White House (also known as La maison blanche) by Chaim Soutine feels like a kaleidoscope on canvas. The white building located in the center of the scene feels pinned in place as the scene all around feels as though it's spinning, creating a sense of movement which is common in Soutine's paintings. The figure on the path is almost diagonal, as he bends with the curves of the trees. Additional structures off to the left have straight rooftops but the walls look as though they are also bending, creating the kaleidoscope effect. There is much confusion among art historians as to when this piece was painted. Dates of 1918, 1919 as well as 1933 have been suggested but no one is quite sure. Today, the original is currently part of the Musee Orangerie collection. Our reproduction is faithful to the original in the pallet used and the attention to detail, ready to enhance your space.
