Louis Berthommé Saint-André. "Le Village en Saintes France" Original Oil on Canvas. (1905 - 1977) French painter, illustrator, ceramist, lithographer and fresco painter enjoying immense popularity throughout his lifetime and was particularly known for his boudoir scenes, nudes, and landscapes, in a vibrant, expressive style. Berthommé-Saint-André created landscapes of Haute-Provence and Íle-de-France which have been well regarded since the 1950s. Offered is an exceptional example of the artist's approach to landscapes and it is glorious. Fauvism was a short-lived but revolutionary early-20th-century art movement in France, characterized by the use of intense, non-naturalistic color and bold, expressive brush strokes. Likely painted in the 1950s, this is a compelling piece especially for anyone who has visited France in the Spring and Summer. Canvas is 30 x 36" and handsomely framed to 35 x 41". In superior condition.
