About the Item

Beautiful, highly detailed acrylic on canvas painting of the Pont de Grenelle in Paris. The Eiffel Tower in the background with the Statue of Liberty to the right side along the Seine. The Statue of Liberty which is a quarter size version of the one in New York Harbor was given by the American community in Paris in 1889 to the French to commemorate the centennial of the French Revolution. Signed lower right. Titled and signed verso. Claude Lorraine painted under the name Claude Dumont. Condition is excellent. Circa 1985. Overall framed in a custom gallery frame with a thin white linen liner. Measurements framed are 29 by 34 inches. Provenance: A Long Island, New York estate. Claude Dumont (Claude Lorraine) was born in 1938 in Metz, France. He spent his childhood in the Meuse area and his parents enrolled him at the national college to become an industrial designer. At the age of 15, he had to stop his studies as he was in the first stage of tuberculosis and he is cared for for 2 years at Villiers Cotterets. There, he met some Parisians and asked his parents to enroll him at the fashion design school in Paris at Ms Bazot. At the age of 19 he completed his military service in Algeria in 28 months, amongst the red hat parachutes. Upon his return, he worked in different fashion establishments: Daniel Hechter, Balaciaga and for magazines such as “Tout Savoir” and “Guerir”. However, one of his peers from the army who had noticed him for his drawing skills contaced him to go to the Place du Tertre in Montmartre (a district in Paris) with him. His success was instantaneous drawing "Poulbots" (Little anecdote: in one month he manages to pay for his first car a triumph). His first paintings are signed C.Demange. After a two-year escapade in Amsterdam, , he returns to Montmartre and only works at his workshop, and each morning, he goes to the Butte de Montmartre, to give his canvasses to his two salesmen. He lives opposite Gen Paul, in Girardon Street and belongs there. During his time in Montmartre, he met Claude Nougaro, Dalida, Jean Marais, Francis Lai, Roger Pierre, Jean Amadou, in places like “Chez ma cousine” or “chez Toto” or “Au Pichet”, the meeting point of all artists living in Montmartre. “La Galerie du Chevalier” and its owner, Mister Closen, noticed his talent and asked him to exhibit on his premises, but with the signature of Claude Lorrain. He decorates the ceilings of the brasserie “La Crémaillère”. In his restaurant "La Pomponette", Roger the owner buys many pieces by Claude. A few years later, it’s Andre Roussard, who lived on Mont Cenis Street, who called upon him for the Japanese Market. An important Swiss Gallery represents him for his clowns paintings in a big format. But in 1981, Gilles Hubert contacts him and imposes the name of Claude DUMONT and him quoted in guides to Artists listings, where his success is immediate. Along with Gilles Hubert, he is now amongst renowned painters and meets Henry d'Anty, Henri Stenn, Pierre Grisot, Denis Canut, Jean-Bernard Trotzier, Eugene Begarat, Claude Mourier, Jean-Piere Dubord, Kimiyo Masuda, Georges Ferro La Gree and many others. In 1993 Henri Stenn dies and Gilles Hubert terminates his job as an agent. Naturally, Claude Dumont continues since, to be represented by galleries and specializes in themes which are no longer secret to him, such as paintings of clowns, pierrots, arlequins, sights of Paris or Venice.
