Original signed pastel painting by Louis Icart, titled "The Broken Pitcher."
Artist Bio: Louis Icart (1888-1950) was a renowned French artist known for his elegant and often sensuous depictions of women, particularly in the Art Deco style. The painting captures a young woman holding a broken pitcher, rendered with delicate brushstrokes and a soft color palette. The use of pastels gives the piece a dreamy, ethereal quality, characteristic of Icart’s work. The artwork is signed by the artist, confirming its authenticity. Icart’s works are highly collectible and appreciated for their beauty and the mastery of the pastel medium, making this piece a valuable addition to any collection of fine art.
