About the Item

Modern street view of the island of Mauritius, oil on board, by Roger Charoux. The painting is signed and dated bottom right and signed and located to the back panel. presented in a fine wood and cloth custom frame. This vibrant painting captures the charm of a serene scene, near the port of St Louis on Mauritius, framed by lush, distant mountains. A woman in a bright orange dress strolls along a narrow path, inviting the viewer to follow her journey. Flanking the path are quaint houses, each distinct with vivid facades and intricate roofs, demonstrating the artist's attention to architectural detail. The use of bold colours enhances the sunlight's play across the scene, creating contrasting shadows that add depth and realism. A singular utility pole and a modestly parked vehicle add modern touches to the idyllic setting. This painting skilfully juxtaposes the tranquillity of rural life with subtle hints of modernity, ultimately celebrating both timeless tradition and gentle progress. Born in 1929 Roger Charoux lives on the island of Mauritius. Roger studied painting with Gabriel Gillet and had as a professor Pierre Matossy in 1946 ( Grand prix de Rome). His first group exhibition was in 1947 at theTown Hall of Curepipe with Hervé Masson, Serge Constantin and some young artists and in 1951 he was awarded ‘’le prix du peintre’’.
