French Chateau On The River Loire, 1928 French Impressionist Edmond Defonte Plein Air Oil On Panel
£280 $375 €321
Ever since selling a picture by Edmond Defonte back in 2018 (one of my first sales on this site!) I have been hoping to find another work by the artist. Born in 1862, Edmond Defonte studied with Joseph Blanc, Diogčne Maillard, Emile Renard, Ulysse Butin and Hector Hanoteau. He became a member of the Society of French Artists in 1889 and also exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants and at the Winter Salon until 1938.
One of the last true Impressionists, he captures light beautifully, translating it into exquisite colours. His paintings are rare, and so I was delighted to find this litte gem. Depicted is a 15th century French Chateau, most likely on the Loire river.
A small sketch, oil oil on board was certainly painted on the motif en plein air for the pleasure of the artist, and not intended to be sold. This theory is corroborated by paint spots on the back and some wear around the edges which make the work extremely personal. Signed and dated 1928 at the lower left, the painting... measures 14 x 23 cm. Presented in a more recent frame, the overall size is 21 x 30 cm.
