Description

I am impressed by the delicate execution of this portrait – the soft pastel strokes and warm color palette create a timeless and emotionally expressive masterpiece, preserving the tenderness of sisterhood and the elegant spirit of Belle Époque France.

EXQUISITE BELLE EPOQUE PASTEL PORTRAIT – FRENCH OVAL ELEGANCE
Immerse your space in Antique French grace with this Original Pastel Portrait of two sisters, their delicate features softly modelled in shimmering hues of pearl, blush, and slate-blue. The artist’s feather-light strokes and gentle sfumato bathe the sitters in a dreamy aura, perfectly capturing the refined spirit of Belle Epoque salons while adding a touch of Dark Moody depth for today’s interiors.

SIGNED ANDRÉE BELIN-DELZANT – RARE COLLECTIBLE EUROPEAN ARTWORK
Under the oval glass you’ll find the clear signature of Andrée Belin-Delzant—pupil of Lefebvre and Fleury, exhibitor at the Paris Salons of 1897 and 1906. Her works are prized for lyrical colour and academic finesse; this example showcases her talent for intimate portraiture, offering collectors an accessible slice of European art history and a genuine alternative to mass-produced prints.

VINTAGE GOLD-FRAMED PRESENTATION – READY FOR CLASSIC HOME DÉCOR
The ornate gilt oval frame, with crisp ribbon moulding and warm patina, arrives ready to hang in libraries, stair landings, or Cottagecore bedrooms. Its softly weathered surface amplifies the pastels’ glow, making the piece an effortless focal point for Rustic Wall Décor, Aesthetic Room Décor, or refined Classic Home Décor ensembles.

MEANINGFUL GIFT & HEIRLOOM ACCENT
Symbolising sisterly devotion and gentle innocence, this artwork is an unforgettable Housewarming Gift, bridal present, or milestone birthday surprise for art lovers, educators, and vintage enthusiasts. It harmonises with Bedroom Wall Art, boutique hotel foyers, or Dark Academia reading nooks, enriching any collection with authenticity and romantic charm.

    • ABOUT SALON ANTIQUE

      Salon Antique is a heartfelt family project. Managed by me, Serg, alongside my brother and son, our shop reflects a deep love for European art, antique treasures, and the timeless stories embedded in every piece.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Find answers to the most common questions about shipping, customs, packaging, authenticity, returns, and antique artwork care. If you need additional information, feel free to contact us before placing your order.

    Is the frame included in the price of the painting?

    The price shown in the listing refers exclusively to the artwork itself. If the painting is shown in a frame in the photos, the frame is not part of the sale and is provided to the buyer free of charge as a decorative addition. Since the frame is provided free of charge, it is not covered by any warranty, and its condition upon arrival cannot be a reason for a return, refund, or compensation. If no frame is shown in the photos, it is not included. If you prefer to receive the painting without the frame, please let me know after purchase — no discounts or price adjustments apply.

    What should I do if my order arrives damaged?

    If your parcel arrives damaged, please follow these steps so a postal claim can be processed properly:
    • take several clear photos of the outer box, the shipping label, the protective packaging inside, and the damaged item
    • report the damage to your local post office or carrier point within 48 hours of delivery and request the official damage report
    • have the form completed and signed by the postal employee and send me a copy within 4 days

    Please keep all original packaging until the claim is fully resolved, as carriers may require additional inspection. Failure to follow these instructions or deadlines may void the claim and compensation. I will file a formal claim with the carrier to ensure the issue is resolved as quickly as possible.

    How do you verify originality, authenticity, provenance, and condition of artworks?

    All paintings in my shop are original, hand-painted artworks. Each piece is examined using professional knowledge of materials, techniques, age characteristics, and historical context. When available, information about the period, school, provenance, or previous ownership is included in the listing and reported accurately. Antique and vintage items may show natural signs of age such as craquelure, patina, minor imperfections, or older restorations, which are always photographed and described. Items are not restored or altered before sale; only gentle surface cleaning may be performed when necessary.

    How do you package antique paintings and other fragile items for safe delivery?

    All artworks and fragile vintage items are packed with great care to ensure safe delivery. Each piece is wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap and protective foam and placed inside a sturdy cardboard box. When possible, I reuse high-quality packaging materials to reduce waste while maintaining the highest level of rotection. Every parcel is packed to withstand long-distance international transport.

    Can I request additional photos, reserve an item, receive a multi-item discount, or buy as a designer or collector?

    Yes. Additional photos are available upon request so you can examine any item closely before purchasing. Reservations are possible by agreement — for a short period for new buyers and longer for returning customers. Discounts for purchasing several items at once can be discussed within reasonable limits. I also work with interior designers, decorators, and collectors on mutually beneficial terms.
