Pamono A Scottroy, View of Paris, Les Invalides and Sacre Coeur, Art Deco Garden, 1931, Oil on Canvas> Art Deco|Painting

View of Paris from an Art Deco garden looking towards Les Invalides and Sacre Coeur, oil on canvas by A Scottroy. The painting is signed and dated bottom left. The canvas is on a stretcher with keys and is presented in a fine period gilt frame.

A wonderful atmospheric view of Paris from the heights looking towards les Invalides and Sacre Coeur. The setting is within a beautiful Art Deco garden with fountains, reflective pool and pergola. It is possibly the setting of one of the decorative art exhibitions of the late 1920s and 30s.

This wonderful painting portrays a serene garden scene, defined by a brilliant interplay of colour and texture. A rectangular pool, encased in rich blue tiles, captures reflections beneath a bright sky. Adjacent to the pool, a decorative fountain with intricate mosaic work stands as a focal point, its vibrant blues harmonizing with the tranquil water. A lush array of blooming flowers and precisely manicured hedges frame the perimeter, introducing bursts of pinks and greens. In the distance, a soft landscape fades into a gentle horizon, adding depth to the composition. The use of light and shadow articulates the time of day, enhancing the peaceful atmosphere. This piece captivates through its meticulous attention to detail, vibrant palette, and the seamless integration of architectural elements with nature’s beauty, creating an idyllic, harmonious garden retreat.
