Paul Mathey Art

French, 1844-1929
Paul Albert Mathey is the son of Charles and Elisa Beaujon. Orphaned at 14, he was taken in by an uncle and spent his childhood in New York. In 1931, he married Claire-Lise Monnier, a painter like him. They have exhibited together several times. Between 1905 and 1910, he took evening classes at the Art Student's League in New York. From 1910 to 1916, he attended the School of Fine Arts in Geneva and was a pupil of Barthélemy Menn. During this period, he received several awards and mentions. In 1916-1917, he worked with Ferdinand Hodler. In 1918, he became a member of the Society of Swiss Painters, Sculptors and Architects (he participated in all of its exhibitions until 1967) and of the Gottfried Keller Foundation (1954-1961). He mainly painted landscapes and still lifes. He also made some theater sets in Geneva. In 1967, he became a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters. A large part of his works can be found at the Monnier Foundation in Cartigny.

Impressionist Landscape Painting, Oil on Canvas, Signed 1932

By Paul Mathey

Located in Genève, GE

Signed and dated "Paul Mathey 1932" in the lower right corner. A refined Impressionist landscape depicting a serene countryside set against a backdrop of distant alpine mountains. Painted in 1932, this work captures a peaceful rural scene with gently rolling fields, a line of slender trees, and a wooded foreground rendered in warm autumnal tones. The composition is structured with a strong sense of depth, leading the eye from the textured foreground across cultivated land toward the soft blue and violet hues of the mountains. The presence of tall, cypress-like trees and blossoming vegetation suggests a southern European or alpine setting, evoking a quiet harmony between nature and cultivated land. Executed with confident, visible brushwork, the artist employs a fresh, luminous palette of greens, ochres, and soft blues. The paint handling is lively yet controlled, characteristic of late Impressionist practice, with an emphasis on light, atmosphere, and seasonal color. The painting reflects a sensitive observation of the natural environment and would appeal to collectors of European landscapes, Impressionist works, and tranquil pastoral scenes. impressionist landscape, alpine painting, mountain landscape, countryside scene, autumn landscape, European landscape art, 1930s painting, pastoral scene, rural landscape, impressionist oil painting, nature painting, cypress trees painting...
