Artist: T.E. Pencke (b.1929) French

Title: Arc de Triomphe

Medium: Oil, Signed Lower Right

Size: 42” x 30” Framed

Pencke is known for his Impressionist Parisian street scene painting. He captures the signature landmarks around the city from Fouquet’s to Montmartre. This piece is flooded with backlight from the sky. In this work, The Arc de Triomphe emerges in hazy lilacs and white under the clouds and from behind the trees on the Champs Elysee. The reflections on the wet street appear dreamlike.
