Louise Jeanne Cottard-Fossey
Mountain Landscape

circa 1950s

About the Item

'Mountain Landscape', oil on canvas, by Louise-Jeanne Cottard-Fossey (circa 1950s). A very idyllic, verdant scene depicted by this renown French female artist whose works were created in an era when art was dominated by males. A cabin sits under a rocky crag in a remote region in one of France's mountainous areas. With such a peaceful view, the viewer can slow down, put her feet up and relish the silence and tranquility of the scene. Fresh mountain air and not a human in sight - the painting transports the viewer to a better place and that is a good thing. In good overall condition, the painting is framed and signed by the artist in the lower right hand corner. Upon request a video of the artwork may be provided. About the Artist: Louise-Jeanne Cottard-Fossey, (1902-1983), born in Le Havre, France, she studied at the University of Beaux Arts in that city and subsequently at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Cottard-Fossey was also a student of well known French artist, Othon Friesz, himself a lifelong friend of Raoul Dufy and several French Fauvists. She is most known for her nude portraits, landscapes and still-lifes. Cottard-Fossey's paintings currently hang in the Musée d’Art Moderne, Paris and its equivalent in Le Havre. Dimensions with frame: H 76 cm / 29.9" W 84.5 cm / 33.3" Dimensions without frame: H 54cm / 21.3" W 63 cm / 24.8"

  • Cabins in the Camargue
    By Yves Brayer
    Located in London, GB
    'Cabins in the Camargue' by Yves Brayer (circa 1950s). The Camargue is a vast, swampy delta near Arles, very exotic, with tall marsh grasses where pink flamingos, black bulls and white horses roam freely. This image depicts one of the gardians in a small gathering of cabanes, hat hanging cowboy-style around the back of the neck, as he approaches his horse grazing outside its modest stable. Although there are many horses that still run free in the Camargue, there are cowboys like this one — called gardians — who ride the white horses on the beaches...
