Montmartre Beauty | 36" x 24"
About the Artwork
Montmartre Beauty is a 36" x 24" acrylic painting by Irene Gendelman. The painting depicts the lively street scene of the Montmartre district in Paris, famous for its artistic and bohemian vibes. In the background, the Sacré-Cœur Basilica stands tall, adding to the beauty of the Parisian skyline. The artist has paid great attention to detail, capturing the historical essence and texture of the architecture, which has aged over time. As you approach the painting, the artist's technique becomes more refined, and each stroke adds depth and character to the scene. The impasto technique is prominently used to create a three-dimensional effect. The colour scheme primarily consists of earthy hues of brown and grey, with the vibrant and colourful clothing of the pedestrians adding life and energy to the scene. Light is also skillfully handled, with the yellow glow of street lamps and windows indicating a late afternoon or evening setting. The reflections on the wet cobblestone streets enhance the painting's romantic and dreamy quality, which is typical of the Montmartre atmosphere.

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.
