This charming Impressionist oil painting, titled Breakfast in the Garden, is a refined homage to the style of renowned American painter Frederick Carl Frieseke (1874–1939). Created circa 1930 by an unknown French artist, the composition beautifully captures a serene moment of tea in a lush garden setting.
A woman dressed in a flowing blue gown and broad-brimmed hat sits quietly at a wicker table set for tea, engaged in delicate handwork. The scene is rendered in a luminous, soft palette, reflecting Frieseke’s signature focus on light, leisure, and femininity.
Executed in oil on canvas, the work remains unsigned and unframed, and is in very good condition, with only minor stretching marks and light surface wear typical of age. A slight yellowish varnish adds to its vintage charm.
This elegant Impressionist garden scene evokes early 20th-century themes of domesticity and tranquility, ideal for collectors of vintage French art, impressionist paintings, garden and tea-themed artwork and Frederick Carl Frieseke followers and admirers.
Frederick Carl Frieseke was a celebrated American Impressionist painter known for his luminous depictions of women in sunlit gardens and domestic interiors. Born in Owosso, Michigan, Frieseke trained at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Art Students League of New York, and the Académie Julian in Paris.
He was a leading figure in the Giverny art colony, alongside Claude Monet, and developed a distinct Franco-American Impressionist style.
He exhibited at major European salons, including the Paris Salon, and won the Gold Medal at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition. His paintings are held in prominent museum collections, including the Smithsonian, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
