Heart of GOLD auction
Lot 175235:
Description
After Louis Valtat (1869-1952, French) original sailboat oil painting. This painting is in the manner of Valtat, still an original, and reflects Valtet in the same technique and aspect. In 1890, upon winning the Jauvin d’Attainville prize, Valtat established his own studio at rue La Glaciere in Paris. He made his debut in 1893 at the Salon of Independent Artists, displaying several paintings depicting street scenes of the neighborhood surrounding his art studio. One of those paintings, titled Sur Le Boulevard (On The Boulevard, 1893) was noted by the art critic Félix Fénéon. During this early period in his career, Valtat used the spontaneous light touches of Impressionism (although with bordered objects) and the colorful dots found in Pointillism.
Size: 35.5 X 23.5″, 38 X 26″ Frame
