An original allegorical ink drawing by French artist Sauvé, dated circa 1800. Rendered in brown ink and wash, this neoclassical figure represents the season of summer, standing barefoot in classical robes with a sheaf of wheat and a sickle - symbols of harvest and abundance. The background features a pastoral landscape with tents and distant hills, anchoring the allegory in an idealized rural setting. Sauvé, a painter from Toulouse and a known drawing instructor of his era, demonstrates precision and balance in this expressive study. Framed under glass in a period-appropriate frame.
Sauvé is a documented early 19th century French artist and instructor. His works reflect academic training, refined draftsmanship, and classical symbolism - all highly sought after among collectors of master drawing.
