Pierre Testu, Brittany women on the seashore

oil, canvas, dimension 50 x 65 cm, signed and dated. "P.Testu 96"

In Pierre Testu's work, the motif of Breton women
on the beach recurs frequently. Busy with their work as fishermen or gathering clams after the tide on the shore among the coastal rocks, Breton women in distinctive costumes and wooden sabots populate his canvases. The painting on display is a work of outstanding decorative value, highlighted by a grand, rich period frame.
