Tree-Lined Avenue with Figures, Signed Oil on Panel by Henri Stenn, 1900s

Henri Stenn (1903-1993)

Listed artist

Henri Stenn was the son of the Flemish painter Charles Verbrugghe, who taught him and whose subjects and handling he kept. He signed under a pseudonym rather than the family name, and painted parks, riverbanks and tree-lined roads in and around Paris through the second half of the twentieth century.

Henri Stenn (French, 1903-1993)
Tree-Lined Avenue with Figures
Oil on Isorel panel

Signed lower left Henri Stenn. 8 x 10 inches (20 x 25 cm), the frame 16 x 18 inches (41 x 46 cm). Carved and whitewashed frame. Good original condition, the frame worn.

An avenue runs straight into the depth of the panel. The trunks rise bare for most of their height before the foliage closes over the top of the picture, in a teal that the eye first takes for green.

On either side the ground falls away into open fields of pale yellow and green, and a low horizon shows through the trunks at left and right. A small group walks away down the path, one figure touched with red, each reduced to a few strokes. The foliage is built in short dabs of a loaded brush and the path in long horizontal strokes that carry the eye to the far end.

Condition report

Age shows on close inspection.

GoodThis painting

Stable. Signs of age or earlier restoration are visible on close inspection, such as small retouches or a slightly yellowed varnish. The overall appearance is intact.

Other grades

Very good

Stable. Only minor, old retouches or very small losses, not distracting at normal viewing distance. The canvas may have been relined or cleaned in the past.

Fair

Stable and ready to hang, but wear or earlier restoration is noticeable at normal viewing distance, such as visible retouching, a discoloured varnish or scattered small losses.

Needs conservation

Visible damage a conservator should treat, such as flaking, a tear, larger losses or heavy old repaint. Every issue is shown in the photographs.
