Yves Wacheux (1933-2023), La Plage Rose, Mixed Media on Paper, Signed, 20th Century

A very fine original work by the French painter Yves Wacheux, entitled La Plage Rose, depicting an animated beach scene, bathed in light, in a palette dominated by pinks, ochres and blues. The composition shows several figures arranged on the sand facing the sea: reclining women, children, standing silhouettes, striped towels and beach tents structure the space. The style is free, expressive and warm, typical of modern French figurative painting of the post-war period, where colour and the vibration of the line take precedence over descriptive detail. The work is mixed media on paper. The whole is presented in a wood frame with geometric decoration, with a wide mount and gilt fillet line, which beautifully highlights the composition.
