Alexandre Leroy
South of France, Original Oil on Card, Post Impressionism, Signed and Dated

1948

About the Item

*The dimensions include the frame This oil on cardboard scene is steeped in the warmth of the South of France, its style nodding to the Impressionists with a touch of Post-Impressionist structure. The play of light and shadow through the trees is reminiscent of Monet's sun-dappled gardens, while the defined shapes and forms echo Cézanne's architectural approach to landscapes. The artist employs a palette of soft pastels to capture the languid atmosphere of a quiet town square, where the stillness contrasts with the Impressionists' typical vibrancy. This work marries the loose, expressive brushstrokes characteristic of Impressionism with a sense of permanence in the buildings and trees, offering a snapshot of a serene, everyday moment under the southern sun, inviting contemplation of the slow-paced life in this charming corner of France.
