A beautifully atmospheric mezzotint titled Soir d'Été by French artist Christian Wouters, signed and numbered 7/99 in pencil. Wouters is known for moody European interiors and masterful tonal printmaking, working primarily in mezzotint and aquatint techniques that create rich shadow, soft light, and remarkable depth. This composition captures a quiet summer interior with filtered evening light, heavy drapery, and a restrained still life rendered in velvety tonal gradations. Presented in an exceptional custom frame with deep forest green and reddish-gold detailing, fine gold beading, and what appears to be a slub silk mat. The framing complements the work beautifully and gives the piece a sophisticated late 20th century European gallery look. Elegant, cinematic, and highly livable. Framed dimensions: 24" x 36" Signed and numbered in pencil.
