Jean Dulac
Post Impressionist French landscape oil painting by Jean Dulac

About the Item

A very attractive Post Impressionist landscape painting of La plage de I’ll Adam, Seine-et-Oise, by Lyonnais artist Jean Dulac. Jean Dulac was born on Bourgoin but from the age of 5 became a lifelong resident of Lyon. His father was a photographer and his influence may have prompted Jean to study at The Fine Arts School of Lyon (1915-1924). He studied sculpture in Paris with the great Paul Lewandowski until he returned to Lyon permanently in 1931. On his return and till his death he was commissioned to create many public statues and frescos in the medium of sculpture. It is not until 1938 that we start to see his love of painting truly emerge. Being a sculptor, his figure studies were of a very high standard, but it is the joy that is evident in his landscapes and still lives that stands out. Often using bold palettes he finds a confident ease creating complex compositions which manage to avoid the fussyness that so many in this genre regrettably achieve. Many of his works show influences from the best Post Impressionists, displaying beautiful contrasts, without overdoing detail, and avoiding muddy hues. All are bright and bold without feeling garish. One can only wonder what he could have achieved if painting had been his first love. Dulac was the founder of the Salon de la Société Lyonnaise des Beaux-Arts in 1946 (Salon of Lyon Fine Arts Society) and was the president until his death in March 1968. The details of the work are as follows: Jean Dulac (French, 1902-1968) La plage de I’ll Adam, Seine-et-Oise Oil on board Signed ‘Jean Dulac’ (lower left) 13 x 18 in. (33 x 46 cm.)

  • Fillette a la pousette - Figurative Post Impressionist Oil, by Victor Charreton
    By Victor Charreton
    Located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire
    Signed figure in landscape oil on board circa 1910 by sought after French post impressionist painter Victor Charreton. This charming piece depicts a young girl in a pink dress and hat playing with a doll in a pram. She stands in long green grass in a garden with tall trees and a red brick house behind her. Signature: Signed lower left Dimensions: Framed: 28"x32" Unframed: 20"x24" Provenance: The estate of the painter Charreton was a landscape artist in the Lyons tradition with a love of sensual impasto. In his works he seeks to capture fleeting, momentary effects, like those achieved by the Impressionists: effects at different times of day and in different seasons, such as dusk and snow. As a young man he painted the environs of Bourgoin. Skilled in capturing minute changes in the weather, he was also adept at capturing the spirit of new places. Beside his native Dauphiné and his adopted Auvergne, he was also charmed by the landscapes of the Île-de-France and Paris - Montmartre, the Jardin du Luxembourg and the Parc Montsouris...
