E. Balacian — Paintings, Biography & Famous Works

E. Balacian is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.

A Parisian watercolorist in the late 1800s, E. Balacian filled delicate sheets with scenes from daily life. In "Eventail plié" (1880), she painted a folded fan resting on a lace-edged table, its ribs catching the faint glow of a gas lamp. Fans like this one were everyday objects, carried to concerts and cafés to shield faces from drafts or sun. Look closely and you’ll spot the faintest watercolor bloom where light hits the gilded sticks. Next, tap into the same sheet of paper and peek at the fan’s painted landscape.
