Description: | Signed: yes Description: Guillaumin began his career as an avant-garde artist by exhibiting with Cezanne and Pissarro at the salon des Refuses in 1863. He was also active in Manet's circle at the Café Guerbois, from which Impressionism developed. In this landscape, typical of his later works the paint is quite dense and applied in thick brushstrokes. This work is composed of complementary colour pairings of blue-greens in the sea and the pink-browns of the sand dunes and the dusk sky. The radical nature of his colour combinations caused J.K. Huysmans to call Guillaumin a 'furious colourist', and Felix Fenon to remark on his 'super-heated skies'. | Subjects: | landscape (dunes and sea) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Guillaumin, Armand (French painter, 1841-1927) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8650... | Go to resource |
