We are delighted to offer for sale this beautiful nude portrait by the Swiss artist FRANCOIS GAY. This is one of a small collection of his work that we have acquired. This portrait is a back/profile view of a nude woman with black hair done in a bun at the back of her head. She is sitting on a couch. The painting has a beautifully toned misty feel to it and is typical of the artist's palette and technique.

Unfortunately, other than the fact that he is Swiss and born in 1940, we have been unable to discover much biographical information about this artist, as our reference books only cover up to 1940. However, he is listed on 5 of the major art auction sites and should not be confused with the American artist August-Francois P. Gay.

There are 7 listings for him on artprice.com, 10 on askart.com, 10 on artnet.com. 8 on findartinfo.com and 3 on arcadja.com. In 2004, one of his oil paintings achieved $2,544 in Switzerland and in 2013, two paintings achieved over £1,000 in Switzerland, one the same size of this and one smaller..

The painting has been newly framed in a 1 1/4" silvery frame, which suits in perfectly. It will be supplied wired and ready to hang.

Image size: 23 1/2" x 19 1/4" - 59.7cm x 48.9cm

Frame size: 26" x 21 3/4" - 66cm x 55.2cm

Medium: Oils on canvas

Condition: Perfect condition. The frame is new.
