R. Champignon
"Along the Seine by Hotel de Paris" 20th Century Post-Impressionist Oil Painting

Mid-20th Century

About the Item

In this piece, the artist depicts his subject in an abstract and impressionistic way, capturing the busy Seine by the Hotel de Paris. The streets of Paris are portrayed in the distance with much life and vibration, we can feel the energy effortlessly. The artist mostly used oil with a pallet knife, with impasto paint, and then by using subtle brush strokes with a wide color pallet, a beautiful rendition of the street with figures is accomplished. The artist was truly a master of capturing the magic and romance of Paris in all of its glory throughout the seasons. This piece is executed whimsically, yet dramatically evoking an emotion of wonder and beauty. Signed lower left and comes housed in a distressed gold tone wood frame with hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 27 x 39 inches Frame measures 32 x 44 inches R. Champignon was born in Marseille in 1918. His studies of art took him to Paris and later to Florence. After completing his education in Italy, he returned to Paris, the city of lights and inspiration for many artists in the 20th Century. He was known for his colorful pallet and bold brushwork, his painting style also has a mystical quality about them which brings us to feel the atmosphere of his works effortlessly. We can feel that the artist was deeply in love with his city. PROVENANCE: Private collection Lincoln Park, New Jersey; Lilac Gallery Collection.
