A Rare Parisian Gem: "Le Vert Galant" by Henri-Jean Pontoy
This captivating oil painting by Henri-Jean Pontoy (1888-1968) offers a unique perspective on the famed Paris, France landscape. While Pontoy is better known for his vibrant Orientalist works, this piece, titled "Le Vert Galant," showcases his mastery in capturing the essence of his adopted home city.
The Enchanting Seine and Beyond:
The painting depicts a scene of Le Pont Neuf and Le Quai de Conti, situated along the borders of the Seine River. This area, nestled near the historic Île de la Cité and Notre Dame Cathedral, is known as "Le Vert Galant" (The Gallant Green) and has long inspired artists, including the likes of Pablo Picasso.
Henri Pontoy's masterful brushstrokes bring the Parisian scene to life, capturing the play of light on the water, the architectural details of the bridge and quay, and the bustling atmosphere of this iconic location. Signed on the lower left corner, this painting represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Parisian history rendered by a very well known and skilled artist.

About the Artist, Henry Pontoy:
Born in February 5th, 1888 in Reims, died in 1968.
Trained at the Beaux-Arts in Paris, he travelled and visited the Maghreb, settled in Fez in 1927 as a teacher and painted in Morocco where he was very much appreciated. Over the course of his career, Pontoy has explored various styles and techniques, ranging from Impressionism to Expressionism and Abstraction. His work is characterized by a bold color palette, dynamic composition, and an exploration of form and light. Pontoy drew his inspiration from nature, cityscapes and scenes of everyday life. His paintings often captured fleeting moments and particular atmospheres, revealing his sensitivity to shades of light and shadow. The artist was also influenced by his travels throughout Europe where he received recognition for his work. His works have been shown in art galleries and museums, and some of them are part of private and public collections.
