Le Clown Triste (The Sad Clown) Original Oil Painting

  • Title: Le Clown Triste (The Sad Clown)
  • Artist: Lou, signed "Lou" and dated 1976 (Lower Right Corner)
  • Medium: Oil on Canvas
  • Frame: Wooden Frame With Black Inner Liner

An evocative scene capturing the deep melancholy of Le Clown Triste, a sorrowful clown seated alongside his loyal companion, a small black dog. The clown’s somber expression, highlighted by the interplay of warm, dramatic hues, draws viewers into the introspective mood of the piece. The small dog, barely illuminated yet noticeably attentive, adds a quiet, almost haunting presence. Dressed in dark attire with a striking orange bowtie, the clown’s posture suggests weariness, while his cane and umbrella further symbolize his journey. The rich tones of fiery oranges and deep reds serve as the emotional backdrop, enhancing the introspective atmosphere of the composition.

Condition: Good, some finish wear and chips to the frame.
