About the Item
"Depuis le col de Brouis" - Provence, Alpes Maritimes, France
“From the pass of Brouis” - Provence, Alpes Maritimes, France
Oil on canvas signed lower right, 54 x 73 x 2,5 cm, titled and dated on the back, 1993
Framed with a natural oak floating frame (59 x 78 x 3,5 cm frame included)
This painting captures a dramatic view from the Col de Brouis in Provence, overlooking a deep valley framed by rugged mountains. Earthy tones of brown, ochre, and reddish hues evoke the warmth of the Mediterranean, while touches of violet and pale blue suggest distant peaks dusted with snow.
A winding road and terraced fields hint at human presence amid the untamed landscape. The soft blue sky, with veiled clouds, adds serenity, contrasting with the powerful textures of the mountains.
The expressive brushwork and layered textures convey a sense of depth and atmosphere, blending raw beauty with quiet contemplation.
JEAN THOMAS (1923-2019)
Trained at the Lyon Academy of Fine Arts, Jean Thomas began exhibiting his work in 1946. His early paintings, influenced by Modernist masters like Fernand Léger and Henri Matisse, also show the impact of contemporaries such as Bernard Buffet. In his landscapes paintings, Jean Thomas explores light with great precision, achieving near-photographic realism while maintaining a distinct artistic style.
Known for his exceptional technical skills, Jean Thomas’s paintings remain in impeccable condition, demonstrating meticulous preparation and execution. He seamlessly blended painting and craftsmanship, creating works of fine detail.
Thomas had a rare ability to capture the essence of places, mainly from France but also from New York and Venice to Tahiti and Corsica. His masterful use of light made his paintings deeply immersive.
Jean Thomas, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 96, left a lasting legacy in major institutions like the Centre Pompidou and the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris. Throughout his career, his introspective approach allowed him to express what moved him, from portraits to Mediterranean landscapes. His work reflects his deep connection to regions like Provence, Italy, Spain, Tunisia, Sicily, and Corsica, which he saw as endless sources of beauty and inspiration.
