Robert Antoine Pinchon Art

French, 1886-1943
Robert Antoine Pinchon was a French painter born in Rouen on 1 July 1886, and one of the most distinctive voices of early 20th-century Normandy. Celebrated above all for his landscapes, river views, townscapes, and the changing skies of the Seine valley, Pinchon developed a vividly personal language rooted in direct observation and an instinctive, highly refined sense of colour. From a young age he embraced a bold, Fauve-inflected palette, yet he remained faithful to his own course and, unlike several of his contemporaries, did not move into Cubism. His art is consistently driven by light: shifting atmospheres, flashes of brightness on stone and water, and the heightened colour sensations of autumn and dusk. Pinchon’s most important works include a sustained series devoted to the Seine, often around Rouen, alongside numerous views of Haute-Normandie in which the landscape becomes a stage for chromatic experimentation. His paint handling, both energetic and controlled, allowed him to convey movement and weather with remarkable immediacy while maintaining a strong sense of structure. Claude Monet is said to have admired him as “an astonishing hand in the service of a surprising eye,” a remark that neatly captures the balance in Pinchon’s work between spontaneity and precision. Beyond his studio practice, Pinchon was an active cultural figure in Rouen’s artistic life. He was elected to the Académie de Rouen in 1932 and later became its President in 1941, recognition of his standing within the region. His life was also marked by the upheavals of his time: mobilised during the First World War, he was wounded at Berry-au-Bac during the Battle of the Marne and later taken prisoner in the course of the fighting around Verdun. Pinchon died on 9 January 1943 in Bois-Guillaume, near Rouen. Today, he is widely regarded as a leading Norman colourist of his generation, an artist who translated familiar places into radiant, ever-changing impressions, and whose rare figure studies offer a particularly intimate counterpoint to a body of work dominated by landscape and light.

Medieval Castle on a Cliff by the Sea on North Coast of Ireland by Irish Artist
Located in Preston, GB
Medieval Castle on a Cliff by the Sea on North Coast of Ireland by 20th Century Irish Artist, John Wright. An impressionistic impasto original oil painting of Dunce Castle, used in Game of Thrones. Art measures 24 x 18 inches Frame measures 34 x 28 inches This vibrant painting captures the dramatic beauty of a rugged coastal scene, dominated by an ancient castle perched atop a rocky cliff. The artist's dynamic brushwork and bold use of color bring the landscape to life, with the turquoise and blue hues of the sea contrasting against the warm, sunlit rocks and castle walls. The swirling water and textured rocks in the foreground add depth and movement, making the scene both captivating and lively. Encased in a classic gold-trimmed frame, this artwork is a striking piece that will add a touch of historical grandeur and natural beauty to any space. Dunluce Castle is a now-ruined medieval castle in Northern Ireland, the seat of Clan MacDonnell. It is located on the edge of a basalt outcropping in County Antrim and is accessible via a bridge connecting it to the mainland. The castle is surrounded by extremely steep drops on either side, which may have been an important factor to the early Christians and Vikings who were drawn to this place where an early Irish fort once stood. Dunluce is one of the most picturesque and romantic of Irish Castles. With evidence of settlement from the first millennium, the present castle ruins date mainly from the 16th and 17th Centuries. It was inhabited by both the feuding McQuillan and MacDonnell clans. Richard Óg de Burgh, 2nd Earl of Ulster, built the first castle at Dunluce, In the 13th century. The earliest features of the castle are two large drum towers about 9 metres (30 ft) in diameter on the eastern side, both relics of a stronghold built here by the McQuillans after they became lords of the "an Rúta" (territory) in the early 1500s. Later Dunluce Castle became the home of the chief of the Clan MacDonnell of Antrim and later John Mor MacDonald the 6th chief Clan Donald of Scotland. In 1584 with the passing off John Mor MacDonald, the Antrim Glens and Castle were seized by Sorley Boy MacDonnell, making it the seat again solely of the MacDonnell Clan. Sorley Boy took the castle, keeping it for himself and improving it in the Scottish style. Sorley Boy swore allegiance to the crown and his son Randal was made 1st Earl of Antrim by King James I. The Girona, a galleass (Ship) from the Spanish Armada, was wrecked in a storm on the rocks at Lacada Point on the night of 26 October 1588. Cannons from the ship were installed in the gatehouses and the rest of the cargo sold, funding restoration of the castle. Dunluce Castle served as the seat of the Earl of Antrim until the impoverishment of the MacDonnells in 1690, following the Battle of the Boyne...
