Captured in a classical seated ballet pose, the dancer is shown low to the ground with one leg elegantly extended and both arms softly rounded in a flowing port-de-bras movement. Vilot masterfully conveys the poise and delicacy of the female form through fluid brushwork and a muted, atmospheric palette. Known for his sensitive depictions of nudes and dancers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003eVilot possessed a remarkable intuition for portraying movement and femininity. His ballerinas, in particular, remain among his most celebrated subjects, embodying both strength and ethereal grace. Here, the artist’s loose yet confident handling of paint lends the composition an immediacy and softness characteristic of mid-century French post-Impressionism. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\u003ePresented in a carved and painted Montparnasse wooden frame of the period\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm; caret-color: rgb(170, 170, 170);\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\nCirca: 20th Century\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"value\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: France\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Excellent condition \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: \u003cem\u003ecanvas 50cm h x 65cm w, framed 68cm h x 83cm w x 6cm d.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRef: 6429\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AD \u0026 PS Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56825242091906,"sku":"6429\/6710","price":1750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/3866\/9870\/files\/6429-Framedpaintingofaballerina-1.jpg?v=1786014190","url":"https:\/\/adpsantiques.com\/products\/mid-century-french-oil-on-canvas-painting-danseuse-au-repos-by-cesar-vilot","provider":"AD \u0026 PS Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
