EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Napees, 1908" an exquisite oil painting on canvas by the renowned French artist Henri-Edmond Cross. Measuring 116x89 cm, this masterpiece is held in a private collection and depicts a scene set amidst the idyllic countryside. The artwork, signed and dated in 1908, belongs to the post-impressionist movement and exhibits Cross's mastery of pointillism. In this enchanting composition, we witness a small group of women immersed in mythological allure. The three figures stand outdoors, their delicate skin illuminated by the warm daylight. One woman with striking red hair takes center stage as she embodies a nymph-like character from ancient mythology. Surrounding her are two equally ethereal companions who contribute to the overall mythical ambiance. Cross skillfully employs his signature pointillistic technique to create vibrant textures and luminous colors that bring life to every brushstroke. The rural landscape serves as an evocative backdrop for these mesmerizing figures, enhancing their timeless beauty. "Napees" transports us back to early twentieth-century France when artists like Cross were pushing artistic boundaries with their innovative approaches. This neo-impressionist gem not only captures our attention but also invites us into a world where myth meets reality. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this exceptional artwork through eChristies Images' lens, preserving its essence for all art enthusiasts to admire and appreciate today.
