A student of Victor Prouvé at the École des Beaux-Arts in Nancy, Jamar trained in various artistic disciplines, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, and engraving. He later specialized in wood sculpture while maintaining a pictorial style marked by sensitivity and detail. His work exemplifies both exceptional technical mastery and a deep respect for Lorraine's artistic tradition. A Tribute to French Art and Craftsmanship: This piece is a testament to Jamar's prolific period in the 1930s-1940s. The joyful and serene hiker embodies the spirit of an era when a return to nature and simple pleasures inspired artists.

Located in Berghuelen, DE

Painted on canvas with pastell colors. Framed with antique decorative gilded frame. Painted in the area of Tyrol or South Germany, late 19th century.
