Leopold Lemage Swain (1886-1934) - Early 20th Century Oil The Model's Corner

A fine interior scene depicting a nude model posing by a candlelit fireplace. The scene captures styles and motifs of the early 20th century, from the model's short cropped hair to the dark furniture and gilt features of the interior. The artist draws the viewer's eye in the direction of the model's, centring on the ornate mirror and candlesticks above the fire, creating a sense of balance in the proportionate composition. Signed to the lower right. Artist name also inscribed to stretchers verso. Presented in a substantial gilt frame with foliate corner ornamentation and scrolling strapwork. On canvas.
