Gery Trefois - 20th Century Oil Si la Femme N’Avait Tenté L’Homme

A striking surreal work by French artist Gery Trefois. An inscription to the reverse reads, "Si la femme n’aurait tenté l’homme, on n’aurait pas su qu’il y a des pépins dans les pommes," or "If the woman hadn't tempted the man, we wouldn't know there are pips in apples." The painting is signed to the lower right, and is well presented in a gilt frame. On panel.
