1987

About the Item

Harvest Fruits, Provence by Robert Vernet-Bonfort (French 1934-2017) signed, inscribed verso oil on canvas, framed framed: 31 x 36 inches canvas: 24 x 29 inches Provenance: private collection, France Condition: overall very good condition Robert Vernet-Bonfort was a French artist known for his distinct style of painting that often captures the essence of Mediterranean landscapes, vibrant seascapes, and picturesque scenes of Southern France. He was born in 1934 in Marseille, France, and his work reflects a deep connection to the region's natural beauty and culture. Vernet-Bonfort's paintings are characterized by their vivid use of color, dynamic compositions, and a strong sense of light. He often depicts scenes of coastal villages, harbors, and countryside views, imbued with the warm, luminous quality of Mediterranean light. His brushwork is expressive, sometimes leaning towards impressionism, but always with a clarity and precision that brings out the vibrancy of the scenes he portrays. He primarily works in oil on canvas, but he has also produced works in watercolor and gouache. His ability to capture the interplay of light and shadow, especially in the context of water and coastal settings, is particularly notable. Robert Vernet-Bonfort has exhibited widely, particularly in France, and his works are held in both private and public collections. He has been recognized for his contribution to the arts, particularly in capturing the spirit and atmosphere of the Mediterranean. Vernet-Bonfort's work is influenced by the rich artistic traditions of the South of France, and he shares some stylistic similarities with other artists who have painted the Mediterranean, such as Paul Cézanne and Henri Matisse. However, his work is distinct in its modern approach to these traditional themes. While he may not be as widely known internationally as some of his contemporaries, Robert Vernet-Bonfort has a dedicated following, especially among collectors who appreciate the serenity and beauty of his Mediterranean scenes. His work continues to be sought after by those looking to capture a piece of the timeless charm of Southern France. His paintings are often celebrated for their ability to evoke the sensory experiences of the Mediterranean – the smell of the sea, the warmth of the sun, and the gentle rustle of olive trees – making them not just visual, but almost tactile experiences for the viewer.
