“Montmartre en Fleurs” – Mid-Century Textural Paris Painting

Playful, vibrant, and unmistakably Parisian, this 12 × 24 inch impasto floral scene was painted by Zachrik, whose studio once stood on Rue Gabrielle, Montmartre – Paris 18, as inscribed on the stretcher. Behind the exuberant bouquet rises the soft golden dome of Sacré-Cœur, placing the scene squarely in the heart of the artists’ quarter that defined post-war bohemian Paris. This joyful composition bursts with thick, sculptural petals built up in generous palette-knife layers, creating a lush three-dimensional texture that catches the light. It’s the kind of exuberant mid-century work that radiates joie de vivre—equal parts art and personality. The piece retains its original velvet-trimmed frame, which can be kept for its vintage charm or easily removed for the on-trend unframed look that lets the color and texture take center stage. Whether hung in a sunroom, studio, or kitchen corner, it brings the exuberant spirit of Montmartre home. ⚠️ Château Policy – This piece is timeless, not fl
