All auctions / Miscellaneous / Sarkis Diranian (1860-1918) - A Quaint Old Lady
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Hand-signed and dated in the lower right corner. - Sarkis Diranian (1854–1918) was a prominent Armenian Orientalist painter born in Constantinople (modern Istanbul), whose artistic career flourished after his move to Paris in 1883. Initially trained at the Dibujo (Drawing) School of his hometown and solidified artistically at the Paris École des Beaux-Arts under the tutelage of Jean-Léon Gérôme, Diranian managed to fuse rigorous European academic technique with a lyrical fascination for the aesthetics of the Middle East. His works—especially his famous female portraits, Ottoman genre scenes, and coastal landscapes—stand out for the refined handling of light, meticulous treatment of textures in fabrics, and a vibrant yet harmonious color palette. Although he remained based in the French capital until his death, regularly exhibiting at the prestigious Paris Salons and earning international recognition, his legacy holds fundamental historical value by bridging the painting tradition of the Armenian diaspora with 19th-century French academicism. - Framed image dimensions: 54 x 65 cm / 60 x 71 cm with exclusive custom frame.

It is important to note that the shipping cost prices shown in the listing are indicative and subject to change depending on various circumstances, including fluctuations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances such as fuel cost fluctuations or adjustments to customs and import tariffs.
