Impressionist Barbizon School River Landscape, Follower of Camille Corot
About the Item
Late 19th century French Impressionist Barbizon school oil on board river landscape. The painting is not signed but is of very fine quality. Presented in a gilt wood frame. There has been a large exhibition label to the back panel sadly now missing.
A charming Barbizon school serene landscape painting capturing a tranquil riverside scene. The composition is dominated by rich, textured greens and blues, skilfully depicting dense trees and their reflections in the calm water. The artist has employed a subtle palette, enriching the scene with layers of earthy tones, creating depth and realism. Sunlight filters through the canopy, casting dappled shadows that dance on the river’s surface, enhancing the peaceful ambiance. This piece stands out with its delicate balance of light and shadow, conveying a sense of timeless natural beauty. The gentle brushstrokes convey movement in the leaves and water, evoking a gentle breeze. This work invites viewers to immerse themselves in the tranquillity of nature, providing a momentary escape from the bustle of life.
The Barbizon school is the name given to oil painters and others who were part of an art movement advancing Realism in art, which arose in the context of the dominant Romantic Movement of the time. Roughly active from 1830 through 1870, the "school" gained its name from the village of Barbizon, France, on the edge of the Forest of Fontainebleau, where many of the artists gathered. Most of their works were landscape painting, which occasionally included farmworkers, and genre scenes of village life. Some of the most prominent features of this school are its tonal qualities, colour, loose brushwork, and softness of form.
The leaders of the Barbizon school were: Théodore Rousseau, Charles-François Daubigny, Jules Dupré, Edouard Manet, Edgar Degas, Constant Troyon, Charles Jacque, and Narcisse Virgilio Díaz. Jean-François Millet lived in Barbizon from 1849, but his interest in figures with a landscape backdrop sets him rather apart from the others. Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot was the earliest on the scene, first painting in the forest in 1829, but British art historian Harold Osborne suggested that "his work has a poetic and literary quality which sets him somewhat apart". Other artists associated with the school, often pupils of the main group, include: Henri Harpignies, Albert Charpin, François-Louis Français, and Émile van Marcke.

Impressionist Barbizon School Oil on Board Landscape, The 'Gorges de la Bourne'
By Georges Guerin
Located in Cotignac, FR
1930s French Impressionist Barbizon School oil on panel view of a river gorge by Georges Guerin (1910-1984). The painting is signed bottom right and also signed top left to the back of the board. The painting is also titled and dated to the back of the board, 'Gorges de la Bourne, Pont en Royans, Aout 1937.'
A very charming view of a river passing through a gorge and leading to a sunlit and colourful rocky cliff face. Guerin has achieved a wonderful play between light and shade, bright and sombre colours making it at once classical in interpretation and yet also modern and abstract. His technique of thick impasto technique worked with a brush is especially successful and gives the paintings surface a charming quality.
Guerin is noted for his landscapes as well as for his Paris street scenes and views of the Brittany coast.
The Gorges de la Bourne or Bourne Gorge is a canyon at the bottom of which flows the River Bourne. It connects Pont-en-Royans to Villard-de-Lans in...
