About the Item

Oil on canvas sold with original frame Total size with frame 86x76 cm René Gourdon was a French painter active during the late 19th to mid-20th century, known primarily for his landscapes and depictions of rural scenes. His work often captured the serene beauty of the French countryside, with a focus on forests, fields, and villages. Gourdon's style was rooted in realism, emphasizing natural tones and a careful attention to detail, which brought a sense of tranquility and depth to his scenes. While not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, René Gourdon's paintings are appreciated for their ability to evoke the peaceful and timeless essence of nature. His works are often found in private collections and occasionally appear in auctions. Details about his life, including his exact birth and death dates, remain somewhat obscure, contributing to a certain mystique surrounding his legacy as an artist.
