Belgian Art Deco Gouache and Watercolor Painting by Leo Engels, Museum Custom Framed 1930's

Description

This vintage sensual one of a kind original work of art by Leo Engels is of the Art Deco period. It is a combination of gouache and water color. Pastel tones mixed with a touch of aubergine and deep blue. The woman in the foreground is enticing yet suggestive. The sensational museum quality custom framing features a silk mat and carved silver leaf moulding that was very very expensive and very custom done around 20 years ago. This is a fantastic work of art that is suggestive and leads to the imagination. It is from the 30's and from Belgium. Again in recap, fabulous and one of kind. This came from Europe 35 years and was in our archives. The frame is stunning and a very custom gorgeous frame that you cannot replicate anymore today.
