About the Item

French watercolour on paper view of a manor house or bastide in a rural landscape. The painting is signed bottom right and presented in a fine gilded wood frame with a hessian cloth insert under glass. There is a label to the back of the frame from a gallery in Nantes, France. A charming rendition of a French manor house its doors opening out on to flowerbeds and a lawn. Set in to the roof are the characteristic œil-de-bœuf elliptical windows. The house is set in a wooded park with tall majestic trees surrounding it. Dropsy has used a loose fluid style for the foliage and sky contrasting against the more precise handling of the architectural details of the buildings. Dropsy is from a long line of accomplished artists and sculptors including Jean Baptiste Émile Dropsy and Jean Baptise Dropsy.

Mid-20th Century Watercolor of Trees in a French Landscape, Framed

Located in Cotignac, FR

A French watercolour on paper landscape by Roger Decaux. The work is signed and dated (as yet undeciphered) bottom right. Presented in a wood frame with cut card mount. A fresh and charming view of trees in a landscape. Decaux has used simple, fluid but strong strokes for this composition. One can feel the influence of 'abstraction of form' that was a part of his later work. The eye is drawn from the trees to the surrounding fields, the touches of colour to the right and then to the silhouette of the hills beyond. The use of watercolour at its best. Roger DECAUX was born in 1919 in Dombasle sur Meurthe in the Lorraine. He studied art in Paris with Gino Severini and Jan Brusselmans...
