Title: Anne Marie Migette Perard; Mid-20th Century French Pastel Landscape of Bethonvilliers Village in Hills Description: Title: Mid-Century French Pastel Landscape of Birch Trees in Summer Light by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977) Signed: Yes Medium: Pastel on unframed paper, mounted on paper Size: 15.25 inches (height) x 20.5 inches (width) (full size with mounting: 18.25 x 21.75) Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound. Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France. Description: This charming mid-century pastel by French Post-Impressionist artist Anne Marie Migette Perard captures a serene woodland scene, where a trio of slender birch trees bend gently in the soft light of summer. The composition is infused with the signature looseness and atmospheric texture typical of Perard’s work, with a delicate interplay of light and shade filtering through the lush canopy above. A central, knotted tree anchors the foreground, its sculptural form contrasting beautifully with the elegant, dappled birches. The gentle gradient from cool shadow to warm sunlight enhances the depth of the scene, evoking the peacefulness of a quiet walk through the French countryside. This is a beautiful example of Perard’s skill in using pastels to convey both movement and mood, perfect for collectors seeking tranquil natural subjects and mid-century European charm.
