Gilbert Privat (1892–1969) – Signed Oil Painting of a French Village Street (1949)
Listed Artist | Salon des Artistes Français | Légion d’honneur

This evocative street scene, signed and dated 1949 by Gilbert Privat, isn’t just a charming glimpse of French village life—it’s a work by an artist of distinction. Privat was an acclaimed French sculptor and painter, knighted into the Légion d’honneur, and regularly exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français. His work has appeared in prestigious French public collections and is still featured in international auctions today.

Though best known for his elegant sculptures, Privat’s paintings—like this oil on board—offer a rare, personal look into his quieter vision. Soft rooflines, narrow cobbled streets, and a tender palette of umber and clay convey postwar peace and French provincial charm. The piece is housed in its original gilt frame, with wear consistent with age that only enhances the richness of its patina.

A signature piece for the collector or the connoisseur—and one we’d proudly hang in the library of our Everyday Château.
