Emile Bellet (French, 1941-1922): Promenade Boree. Lithograph in color on wove paper. Signed in pencil lower right and numbered. Artist's Proof 35/100, unframed, this work is accompanied by a COA.

Emile Bellet's paintings are notorious for the mysterious female he included in his compositions. His wife, his daughter, and musings on an idyllic kind of woman were all sources of his inspiration. The familiar female figure used throughout his work is symbolic of his impression of femininity. She represents all women and, for this reason, has no facial expression. She is timeless, ageless, and universal.

18 x 13.5 inches with margins.

Purchased in 2004 at Park West Gallery;. Private collection, Boston.
