A pretty Parisian showgirl is shown on her way to the Opera in this large and lovely original Pal Fried fine art oil on canvas painting. Along with his nude studies, Fried is best remembered for these lovely and provocative high-society, sophisticated yet sultry views. This remarkable example retains its somewhat garish, but now iconic, mid-century ornate frame. This is signed lower left and the back canvas has the artist’s copyright stamp and inventory notations.
