About the Item

Antoine Bouvard (French, 1882–1956) Gondolier on a Venetian Backwater Oil on canvas Signed ‘Bouvard’ (lower left) 21.25 x 32 in. (54 x 81.5 cm) In this tranquil Venetian scene, Antoine Bouvard captures a gondolier gliding through one of the city’s quieter canals, bathed in the warm glow of late afternoon light. Known for his romantic views of Venice, Bouvard masterfully conveys both the architectural beauty and the serene rhythm of life on the water. Antoine Bouvard, also known as Marc Aldine, was a highly regarded French painter of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He studied architecture at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and worked under the direction of the architect of the City of Paris. His architectural training profoundly informed his compositions, especially his celebrated Venetian scenes. Bouvard exhibited widely during his lifetime, and his work remains sought-after for its romantic sensibility, fine draftsmanship, and luminous treatment of light. His paintings are held in private collections throughout Europe and beyond.
