Innocence

Guillaume SEIGNAC Innocence

Just as the maiden with the fan relaxes from her day with cherubic whispers in her ear, she portrays youth and innocence as the title of the painting implies. The artist is Guillame Seignac. he was a French painter and often did these kinds of works, with details of landscapes, wonderful colors and maidens draped in various poses, with a little mythological emphasis included.

He was at the height of his career by 1903, but after he passed away in 1924 at only fifty four, sales of his paintings dwindled at the start of the Depression. But you can find them at auctions and reproductions.
