About the Item

Interesting and well-drawn French late 19th-century River landscape with boat sketch, in pen and ink and sepia color. Emile Cagniart was born in Paris where he would remain for his sixty years. Like many young aspiring artists of is the day he worked as an apprentice to an established artist. In the case of Cagniart it was Antoine Guillemet (1843-1918) the renowned paysagiste who was barely eight years his senior. Guillemet instructed Cagniart in the art of painting landscape compositions much as the great Corot had taught Guillemet himself. His first opportunity to show his skills to a wider audience outside of Guillemet’s atelier came in 1877 when he was invited to show at the Paris Salon. He would continue to exhibit at this most prestigious of venues until 1900 when, under the rules of the Salon, he could no longer exhibit as a result of his invitation to join the Salon’s judging committee. After 1900 Cagniart continued to paint, working mostly in the Seine and Loire River valleys producing works full of light and subtle shadow. He would die in Paris on St. Valentine’s Day in 1911. Possibly the best from the folio group.
