About the Item
A French Barbizon School oil on canvas view of an idylic landscape signed M Legrand de C. Signed bottom left and presented in fine gilt 'Regence' style frame. The painting is on a quality stretcher with 'keys'.
The artist has captured the feeling of a beautiful sunny day in a copse of poplar trees by the side of a river. There is a bridge in the right foreground to traverse the lightly flowing river, the sunshine sparkling on its surface. To the left a stile gate and beyond more trees and the far distance we can just see the flash of red terracotta roof tiles on a farm building.
The artist has used the typical colour palette of the Barbizon school, shades of green and a lovely azure for the sky. The whites adding the highlights and the touch of red catching the eye and bringing the whole composition to life. A really beautiful and accomplished painting.
The Barbizon school of painters were part of an art movement towards Realism in art, which arose in the context of the dominant Romantic Movement of the time. The Barbizon school was active roughly from 1830 through 1870. It takes 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, but several of them also painted landscapes with 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, 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.
