  • RICHARD MONTPETIT
Provenance:

Roberts Gallery Limited, Toronto

Note:

Montreal, the city Montpetit calls home, has provided rich inspiration for his paintings. Here, a wet sidewalk along St-Denis - after a rain shower - is an open invitation to Montpetit to demonstrate his masterful rendering of reflected light - a signature skill of his.
