Sold with invoice and certificate of authenticity Fast and neat shipment with insurance. René Sautin (1881-1968) was born in Montfort-sur-Risle in 1881. He entered the Beaux-Arts in Rouen in the painting studio of the painter P. Zacharie, then in Paris in the Ferrier studio where he received advice from Albert Lebourg, a native of the same village. He then joined the Independents with Signac and Luce. He married in 1910, with Marthe, settled in Les Andelys in 1911 and befriended the sons Pissarro, Signac, Luce, Derain, Guillaumin, Lebasque, Bigot, Gernez who met in Andelys to paint on the banks of the Seine. Impregnated with his Norman land, René Sautin will be essentially a landscape painter. Around 1923, he abandoned the Impressionist style for a calm and reasoned Fauvism. The painter, having found balance in his means of expression from 1925, will reach his fullness in the 1950s. He is one of the rare Norman painters to describe his landscapes in such a personal way by their power, a certain controlled violence, strong sensitivity. A proud, distinguished, very cultured man, he suffered a lot from not being understood in his time and he regretted this isolation: "My life was often hard and difficult..." René Sautin was born in the same village as the famous painter Albert Lebourg, in Montfort sur Risle. But it is in Andelys that he will spend most of his life. After primary and secondary studies at Montfort sur Risle and Pont-Audemer, René Sautin immediately turned to drawing: "After my studies, armed with a classical background, I entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Rouen in the studio of painter Philippe Zacharie, a distinguished master for whom drawing was a precious metal. Then I went to Paris where I spent a year in the Ferrier studio… and I threw myself into painting with some good friends and listening to the advice of the painter Albert Lebourg. » René Sautin left the capital in 1911 to settle in Les Andelys with his wife Marthe. The first period of his work is very influenced by Albert Lebourg, but his temperament very quickly attracts him towards a Fauvist painting with calm and reasoned colors. He himself said of his painting: “To paint, in essence, is to spread paste and not to rub. Starting from there I paint thick in full paste, without rubbing, each touch being definitive. I never go back on a tone once the key is placed. This gives great power to my painting and a lot of character. What the hell ! nature is affirmed. What makes the beauty of a tone is its daring and rich color. All the art of painting resides in doing or interpreting as one feels, as one sees, all the rest is snobbery. To paint is to exteriorize one's temperament. It is an interpretation of his thought that is passed on to others. » The period of the Second World War deeply upset the artist, because René Sautin was undeniably a true lover of the Andelys. He continues to paint the Seine, the quays of Petit-Andely and the Château Gaillard. He very often paints in the same places, but each time it is a new work that he creates. However, on June 8, 1940, the Germans bombed the town of Andelys. We then discover a city destroyed at ninety percent. The churches were spared as well as a few houses, but the whole city center disappeared under the shelling of explosive and incendiary bombs. During this period, artists lose the taste for painting. Nevertheless, René Sautin made a series of watercolors the day after the bombings, as if he wanted to preserve a testimony, for future generations, of the apocalyptic vision of the city. From then on, his work changed. Its design is more marked, outlined in black. On the Seine the barges have the tricolor bulwark. In the 1950s, René Sautin continued this tendency to emphasize his design. Unfortunately, he gradually loses his sight. The artist compensates for his loss of vision with increasingly violent and vivid colors. He stopped painting definitively in 1964, four years before his death.
