About the Artwork

Au Café Les Entretiens is a 24" x 24" oil painting by Jeannette Perreault.

The painting features three women engaged in a moment of interaction. A waitress stands at the table, holding a menu and engaging with two seated patrons, who are absorbed in their discussion and decision-making. The central figure, the waitress, is depicted with her blonde hair tied back, dressed in a white blouse and black apron, leaning slightly forward as she offers the menu. Her posture and gestures suggest attentiveness and professionalism. The two patrons seated at the table are depicted in a more relaxed manner. One, dressed in a vibrant blue, looks pensive, while the other, in darker tones, engages in decision-making. The café's interior is rendered in warm and inviting hues, with details such as the bottle and glass on the table, the soft lighting from overhead lamps, and the rich, textured walls enhancing the sense of place. The play of light and shadow, coupled with Perreault's expressive brushstrokes, adds depth and vibrancy to the scene. Perreault's ability to capture everyday interactions with vivid detail and emotional resonance is evident in this piece. The painting invites viewers to immerse themselves in the familiar yet intimate world of a bustling café, reflecting the artist's talent for portraying the subtleties of human connection and the charm of urban life.

Artwork Care

CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK

Display
Hang artwork away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and air vents. UV exposure causes fading over time — UV-protective glazing is recommended for works on paper and photography. Avoid hanging artwork above fireplaces or in bathrooms where heat and humidity fluctuate.

Cleaning
Dust frames gently with a soft, dry cloth. Never use household cleaners, water, or solvents on the artwork surface. For oil paintings, a soft-bristle brush can be used lightly to remove surface dust. Professional cleaning is recommended for valuable or delicate pieces.

Temperature & Humidity
Maintain a stable environment — ideally 18–22°C (65–72°F) with 40–55% relative humidity. Rapid changes in temperature or humidity can cause warping, cracking, or flaking. In Alberta’s dry climate, a humidifier can help protect your collection during winter months.

Handling & Moving
Always handle artwork with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. Carry framed works by the sides of the frame — never by the hanging wire. When transporting, wrap in acid-free tissue or soft blankets and keep upright. For valuable pieces, professional art handlers and custom crating are recommended.

Storage
Store artwork upright in a cool, dry, dark space. Use acid-free materials for wrapping. Never store artwork in attics, basements, or garages where temperature and humidity are uncontrolled.

Insurance
We recommend insuring your art collection. An up-to-date appraisal (every 2–3 years) ensures proper coverage. West End Gallery offers professional appraisal services — please enquire for details.
