About the Item

French Mid Century Post Impressionist view of Montmartre, Paris in the snow, oil on board by Louis Peyrat. The painting is signed bottom right and is presented in a distressed custom frame. This charming atmospheric painting portrays a quaint, snow-laden Parisian street in a serene winter setting. The composition centres on two figures clad in dark attire, walking down a narrow, winding road that guides the viewer's eye deeper into the scene. Flanked by rustic buildings with muted hues, the street exudes a charming, calm atmosphere. The interplay between shadows and light is masterfully executed, giving dimension to the snow-covered rooftops and the icy path. Trees, stripped of their leaves, stand stark against the dull sky, enhancing the cold, tranquil ambiance. The artist’s use of texture and brushstrokes subtly highlights the crispness of the snow and the architectural elements. This piece captivates through its simplicity and the quiet stillness it evokes, capturing a moment of calm in an otherwise bustling world. Louis Peyrat (1911-1999) attended the School of Decorative Arts in Limoges, then from 1934 he devoted himself to painting. In 1948 he exhibited at the Magadoux gallery in Limoges, then in Royan and in many other galleries. From 1958, he painted views of Paris, and particularly of Montmartre, which made him successful. He was a part of the famous Cercle Volney and Parisian galleries such as the Roussard gallery. His paintings were exhibited alongside those of Degas, Derain, Domergue, Buffet, Braque, Picasso, Foujita, Utrillo, Laurencin etc...

Rue St Rustique, Montmartre and Sacré-Coeur Basilica, Paris. Watercolor and Ink.
Located in Cotignac, FR
Mid 20th Century drawing and watercolour of Rue St Rustique in Paris. The drawing is titled and signed bottom left but the signature is as yet undeciphered. Unframed but with a cut card mount. A charming view of one of the oldest streets in Montmartre and Paris leading up to the iconic Sacré-Coeur Basilica. The artist has captured all the charm of this treasured view. They have shown a mastery of their art and wonderful handling of the drawing and watercolour. A lovely evocative painting that would grace any collection or interior. This street in the old village of Montmartre, which existed before the eleventh century as a path, later became an alley that served as a boundary between the seigneuries of Saint-Denis and Montmartre. Called "rue Notre-Dame" around 1516, it is indicated on the map of Jouvin de Rochefort of 1672 as a road. It was classified as part of the Parisian road network by a decree of 23 May...
