About the Item

Karl Pierre DAUBIGNY With price reaching upwards of $36 000 this is opportunity to purchase a piece by an artist who was at the forefront of the impressionist movement at a price that has great potential investment. It has excellent provenance coming from the continent via Christies in the 1980s and is in many important museums from the Musée d’Orsay, Paris to the Rijksmuseum, The Hague. Oil on panel Panel size: 11 x 21" (28 x 54cm) Outside frame size: (48 x 74cm) Born on 19 June 1846 in Paris and died on 25 May 1886 Painter of animals, landscapes, marines in both oil and watercolours Karl Pierre Daubigny was the son of, Charles Francois Daubigny, one of the original eight Barbizon painters and one of the leading landscapists of his time. Taught by his father, who greatly influenced him, Karl Daubigny travelled the French countryside painting, working primarily in Auvers, Normandy and Fontainebleau. He made his debut exhibition in 1863 with A Track (Un Sentier) and Île de Vaux in Auvers (L'Île de Vaux à Auvers), which showed his keen feel for nature in spring. He continued to exhibit regularly at the Salon. In 1866 he showed View Taken in Picardy (Vue prise en Picardie) and Halt of Bohemians (Halte de Bohémiens). He was awarded medals in 1868 and 1874. While Karl Daubigny is often associated with a style much like that of his father he also was heavily influenced by Impressionism and Monet in particular. The influence of Impressionism is not surprising; the elder Daubigny was one of the greatest supporters of Monet and the Impressionists in the early years of the movement. During 1871 and 1872 Karl and his father made a painting trip with Monet to the canals of Zaandam. Karl’s approach at this time emulated the freedom, the use of impasto on his canvases and panels and the palette of Monet’s depictions of Zaandam. Karl Daubigny died prematurely at the age of 40 on the 25th May 1886. His prolific contribution to the second generation of Barbizon painters is evident in his ability to convey, through his painting, his devotion to and love of nature. Karl Pierre Daubigny figured in the exhibition From Delacroix to Dufy: Cliffs and Rocks (De Delacroix à Dufy, Falaises et Rochers) at the Musée des Terre-Neuvas in Fécamp in 1998. In 2000 an exhibition featuring the works of both father and son for the first time was organised at the Musée Daubigny in Auvers-sur-Oise” (Benezit, Dictionary of Artists, Gründ, 2006).
