A portrait of French caricaturist Georges Goursat (Sem) by Giovanni Boldini, dated 1901. The painting exemplifies Boldini's energetic style and his ability to capture the dynamism of his subjects.
This portrait by Giovanni Boldini depicts Georges Goursat, known as Sem, a French caricaturist, poster artist, and chronicler of Parisian society during the Belle Époque. Boldini, an Italian genre and portrait painter who lived in Paris for much of his career, was celebrated for his energetic style and ability to capture the dynamism of his subjects. His portraits often convey a sense of movement and immediacy, reflecting the spirit of the era. In this painting, Sem is shown in a three-quarter view, his gaze direct and engaging. The brushwork is loose and expressive, particularly in the background and clothing, creating a sense of spontaneity. The colour palette is restrained, with muted browns and blacks contrasting with the lighter tones of Sem's face. Boldini's signature and the date, 1901, are visible in the lower right corner, confirming the painting's authenticity and period. The portrait offers a glimpse into the artistic and cultural milieu of early 20th-century Paris, capturing the likeness of a notable figure through Boldini's distinctive artistic vision.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

Belle Epoque portraits that elongated and electrified Parisian society, painted with a fluid "swish" that Time magazine made his epithet
