Description: | Signed: yes Description: Eugène Pavy is better known for his orientalist paintings of North-African street scenes and this rural landscape is highly unusual among his surviving works. It follows the naturalist trend for French rural scenes which was burgeoning around 1879 when the image was painted. His observation of light on the landscape, for example, indicates the growing emphasis on painting outdoors. The subject and composition are reminiscent of the riverside paintings of Charles-François Daubigny whose role in the Ecole de 1830 was seminal to nineteenth-century French landscape painting. The recent death of Daubigny and his peers had renewed awareness of their works. | Subjects: | sheep) landscape; animal (cattle | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Pavy, Eugene (French painter, active late 19th century) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8838... | Go to resource |
