About the Item

Lanscape France,Ocean, France , grey, blue, azure,beach,cliffs, Normandy Henry Maurice CAHOURS (Paris, 1889 – Vence, 1974) He was born in Paris but spent his childhood and adolescence in Amiens, where he attended the Academy of Fine Arts. He moved to Paris, exposed to Salon des Indépendants and to Salon d’Automne participating actively in the very vivid artistic life of the capital. From 1930 he is partner in Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts and since 1960s he is present in prestigious exhibitions abroad. His favourite subjects are landscapes, in particular Brittany, managing to grasp perfectly the atmosphere; in his works there is a constant search of the typical colour and light of those places, much to do so that a French critic defined him “the poet of light". The Gallery dedicated to him many exhibitions and monographs with general catalogue of the works. MUSEUMS Amiens, Musée de Picardie Cagnes sur mer, Château Musée Cambrai, Hôtel de Ville Geneva, Musée Petit Palais Lorient, Hôtel de Ville Péronne, Musée Alfred Danicourt Salon de Provence, Musée de l’Emperi Troyes, Musée des Beaux-Arts The City of Vence dedicated to him, in the suggestive medieval town, the «Passage Cahours» and in 2009 his painting Place Surian (1968) became part of the cultural touristic project La Côte d’Azur des Peintres - La Route des Peintres, under the aegis of the Comité Régional du Tourisme.
