Description: Ca 1910–1920, Old painting 'Pierrot and Pierrette,' oil Oil on panel Dimensions with frame: 29.9x22.2 in An old oil painting on panel, depicting a pair of classic comic characters from European theater—Pierrot and Pierrette—who originate from Italian commedia dell'arte. Pierrot - is traditionally portrayed as a sad clown, melancholic and hopelessly in love, dressed in a white, voluminous outfit with distinctive white makeup and black teardrops. Pierrette - on the other hand, is often depicted as his lively and graceful partner. Together, they form a contrast that was popular in European art, symbolizing romantic longing and the turbulence of love. Works on this theme were frequently painted by artists of the modernist period, inspired by theater and literature. In this case, the absence of a signature makes it difficult to attribute the painting to a specific artist, but the style may suggest influences from art deco or impressionism, typical of the early 20th century. The painting is in good condition; photos are attached for reference. The frame is not part of the auction and is included as a free addition to the painting. The attached photos are an integral part of the painting's description. Number: 40594/170/R0
