About the Item

Contemporary mixed medium on paper of a forest scene in Provence, France by Belgian artist Francis Besson, signed bottom right. Presented in oak 'case' frame, under glass. Francis was born in Dundee (Scotland) in 1943 however as a young child moved to Belgium where he later became famous as an actor. His family kept a second home in Cotignac in Provence which he visited often until finally going to live there himself in the early 2000's. Francis Besson now lives and works in the beautiful village of Cotignac in Provence in the south of France. His often impressionistic almost pointillist work is inspired by the nature he sees around him in this lovely part of the world. The intensity of the light , the rocks and forests of Provence all feature in his paintings. He is known for both landscapes and abstract works and has often collaborated with other local artists. Painting will be shipped without glass to avoid damage.
