Catalogue Note
La composition que choisit Guigou est audaciause : les lavandières sont vues de dos, le plan est rapproché et le ciel, coupé. Ce beau tableau, peut-être un "portrait de métier", montre le désir constant du peintre de reproduire l'atmosphère du Sud : lumineuse, poussièreuse et chaude. Les couleurs vives de la composition traduisent cette ambiance.
La composition reprend la partie gauche de La Lavandière daté 1860 conservé au Musée d'Orsay, Paris.
Nous remercions le comité Paul Guigou (Franck Baille - Nicole Durand - Sylvie Lamort de Gail - Marc Stammegna) d'avoir aimablement confirmé l'authenticité de cette oeuvre. Un certificat pourra être demandé par l'acquéreur.
