Pierre Rousseau

A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a decorative panel against the cream background. At top, a winged child holds a banner beneath floral garlands. In the center, two women in white gowns support a rod for a sitting child. At bottom, sphinxes flank a green base featuring blue classical reliefs. Symmetrical vines, vases, and medallions frame the central axis, while small figures animate friezes throughout the design.

Said by Wildenstein & Co. (letter of January 19,1942) to have come from 193 Boulevard St. Germain, Paris (known at the time as 21 and 23 rue St. Dominique), a private house, supposedly built after plans by Ange-Jacques Gabriel (1698—1782).
