La Lavandière original painting The work is signed VerrionFine art from France: A large scale painting on canvas, signed Paul Sbilleau (1847 1907). This scene takes place in the countryside at the edge of a stream near a village. We can see a washerwoman along the bank washing a pile of laundry. A powerful light emerges from the work supported by this sky with eggshell hues and the play of contrasting shadows in the foreground. Time freezes in this scene somewhere in the south of France.
