Lovely tranquil landscape of the Marais Poitevin area of France. The artwork is done in pastel and is signed byJeanne Bily-Bossard. On the back is a note which when translated from the French reads:
'Rouvereau Framing... address...Bily-Brossard (Mme) Jeane ...address...Landscape of the Marais Poitevin (deux-Sevres department)...pastel... Gold Medal - out of competition )exempt from competing /Honorary status).
The painting was clearly important because it has been framed in a Montparnasse Frame, which are well known for their decorative design and well sought after.
