About the Item
Claude Sauthier was born in Geneva on February 2, 1929, died in Geneva on October 4, 2016.
Follows the School of Decorative Arts in Geneva to become a graphic designer.
Shortly after obtaining his diploma, he left Geneva for Peru with his wife Liliane Germond. The couple will have three children, including a daughter who died at the age of 14, in 1968.
He worked as a graphic designer in Lima for 4 years.
Back in Geneva where he would stay the rest of his life, he worked for the Humbert graphic design office for a while, then opened his own office.
At the same time, he teaches Decorative Arts, an activity he will exercise until his retirement.
From his youth, Claude Sauthier was interested in drawing and painting.
He mainly paints landscapes. For a long period (years 60-70), he painted in gouache seascapes on the Atlantic coast, seashores in Vendée or Brittany.
Then, fascinated by Brueghel's winter scenes, whose paintings he saw in Vienna, he began to paint winter landscapes. He acquired the technique of oil painting, which he practiced on canvas or on wood prepared in the old fashioned way.
He chooses his landscapes in the Geneva region, in Savoy, in Gruyère, and sometimes in German Switzerland. His paintings are appreciated, and he will exhibit regularly in a Bernese gallery, then in Lausanne (Galerie d'Etraz).
He also developed a great mastery of watercolor, which he exercised during trips to Scotland, Venice or France.
Eye surgery results in loss of color vision, and in his last activities as an artist, he draws landscapes in graphite.

Claude Sauthier est né à Genève le 2 février 1929, décédé à Genève le 4 octobre 2016. Suit l'Ecole des Arts décoratifs de Genève pour devenir graphiste.
Peu après l'obtention de son diplôme, il quitte Genève pour le Pérou avec son épouse Liliane Germond. Le couple aura trois enfants, dont une fille qui décède à l'âge de 14 ans, en 1968. Il exercera son métier de graphiste à Lima pendant 4 ans. De retour à Genève où il restera le reste de sa vie, il travaille quelques temps pour le bureau de graphisme Humbert, puis ouvre son propre bureau.
Parallèlement, il enseigne aux Arts décoratifs, activité qu'il exercera jusqu'à sa retraite.
Dès sa jeunesse, Claude Sauthier s'est intéressé au dessin et à la peinture.
Il peint essentiellement des paysages. Pendant une longue période (années 60-70), il peint à la gouache des marines sur la côte Atlantique, des bords de mer en Vendée ou en Bretagne. Puis, fasciné par les scènes d'hiver de Brueghel dont il voit les tableaux à Vienne, il commence à peindre des paysages d'hiver. Il acquiert la technique de la peinture à l'huile, qu'il pratique sur toile ou sur bois préparés à l'ancienne.
Il choisit ses paysages dans la région genevoise, en Savoie, en Gruyère, et parfois en Suisse allemande. Ses tableaux sont appréciés, et il exposera régulièrement dans une galerie bernoise, puis à Lausanne (Galerie d'Etraz). Il développe aussi une belle maîtrise de l'aquarelle, qu'il exerce lors de voyages en Ecosse, à Venise ou en France. Une opération des yeux entraîne une perte de la vision en couleur, et dans ses dernières activités d'artiste, il dessine des paysages à la mine de plomb. Les cotes et indices de l'artiste établis reposent sur 47 adjudications en peinture et dessin-aquarelle. L'adjudication la plus ancienne enregistrée est une peinture vendue en 1992 chez Dobiaschofsky Auktionen AG et la plus récente est une peinture vendue en 2019.
