A large-format decorative panel painted on canvas mounted on panel, depicting an exotic scene in the style of 19th-century panoramic paintings. In the foreground, several figures are scattered across a lagoon-side landscape planted with tropical vegetation: palm trees, banana trees, and flowering trees. A sailing canoe glides across the calm waters, while the background opens onto a view of bluish mountains. The whole is rendered in a palette of light and harmonious tones, blending decorative flat areas with stylized details.

The panel is part of the decorative tradition of large painted decorations produced for the furnishing of elegant interiors or public places in the first half of the 20th century, in a style reminiscent of the panoramas of the Zuber house or the exotic decorations in vogue in the 1930s-1950s.

Condition: very good overall condition. Colors are bright and well preserved. Some minor wear or signs of use on the edges, without altering the scene.
