Vintage Francine Van Hove Wing like Arms offset print

French painter Francine Van Hove is well known for the transparent skin tones of her women subjects, which she paints exclusively, and always from life. The expression of beauty, sensuality, femininity and freedom is the philosophy behind her work.

Vintage Offset print of wing-like arms by famous French artist Francine Van Hove. This offset print was printed in 1996 in limited numbers by Nouvellesimages from France.

Born in Saint-Mandé (Seine, France), she studied in Paris and received a Fine Arts degree.

She is known for her wonderful paintings of young women with dreaming attitudes. Her graphic and pictorial techniques are reminiscent of Italian Renaissance painters and Flemish painters of the 16th and 17th centuries. Her work now counts more than 400 paintings, all privately owned, as well as numerous drawings and pastels.

In 2014, Alain Blondel, her historic art dealer, retired after having promoted her work for 32 years. Since then, Francine Van Hove is represented by Jean-Marie Oger, former assistant at galerie Alain Blondel.
