Lucien Adrion
Pont Alexandre III

About the Item

Signed lower right and dated 1939 Lucien Andrion captures a beautiful sun filled day on the Seine with his signature style. The Pont Alexandre III bridge is adorned with gilded sculptures and elegant curves become the focal point of the composition. The bridge stretches gracefully across the Seine river while the Eiffel Tower stands balanced to the right in a hidden but majestic silhouette. The river shimmers with reflections lending a dynamic almost magical quality to the painting. A masterful example by the artist showcasing his skill and talent. Bio: After beginning as a technical draughtsman in Strasbourg, Lucien Adrion became a fashion designer in Paris a the age of 18, and then traveled to London, Munich, and Frankfurt. He was apprenticed as an engraver to Hermann Struck in Berlin, returned to his home town in 1919, and finally settled in Paris where he allied himself primarily with Chaim Soutine, Michel Kikoine and Pinchus Kremegne. He exhibited regularly at the Salon des Independants, d'Automme and des Tuileres. He took a variety of external scenes as subjects for his work, showing a particular fondness for the most picturesque aspects of the Parisian landscape, beach scenes and horse races

DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK Shepherd in the Pyrenees by Enric Porta i Mestre depicts a rural scene with a striking sense of introspection and evocative charm.

In this piece, Porta i Mestre showcases a mastery of color and light, illustrating his deep connection to his homeland and its rural life, which served as a source of inspiration throughout his career.
