Sherree Valentine-Daines

A large and atmospheric original oil painting on canvas by listed British artist Sherree Valentine-Daines, born 1959, depicting a snow-covered Parisian boulevard populated with elegantly dressed figures and horse-drawn carriages.

The composition is based after Norbert Goeneutte’s “The Boulevard de Clichy Under Snow.” Valentine-Daines has interpreted the historic Parisian winter scene in her own painterly manner, using softly muted greys, creams and pastel tones, contrasted by darker figures and carriages.

The work is signed “Sherree Valentine-Daines” in the lower-right corner.

Presented in an impressive swept gilt composition frame with a linen-lined inner border and narrow gilt slip. The substantial decorative frame complements the period character of the scene and makes the painting ready to display.
