Lot description

Gaston Balande, French 1880-1970- Vue de la cathédrale de Ségovie; oil on canvas, signed and indistinctly inscribed 'Segovia[?] / G. Balande' (lower left), 80.2 x 64.3 cm. ARR. (Import VAT charged on the hammer price). Provenance: A Private Collection of French Naturalist Painters. Note: Works by Balande are now in major French public collections, including 'Un beau jour d'ete, 1921' (Musée National d'Art Moderne) and 'Improvisation, 1923' (Musée des Beaux-Artes, Pau). The success of these large scale scenes would also lead to public commissions for the cruise liners 'Normandie' and 'De Grasse', as well as a school in the La Rochelle region and the Town Hall at Aubervilliers. Segovia Cathedral, also known as The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption and of Saint Fructus, is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in the Spanish city of Segovia. The church is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and to Saint Fructus. It was built in the Flamboyant style, and was dedicated in 1768, constituting one of the latest Gothic cathedrals in Europe.
