About the Item

Large Oil on Canvas by André Morisset (1876–1954), France, 1931 Title: Seaside at Sunset With frame: 91 x 120 cm – 35.8 x 47.2 inches Without frame: 75 x 103 cm – 29.5 x 40.6 inches Signed: Lower right “Andre Morisset” (see photo) Original frame Condition: Excellent Carrier Label: Includes original carrier label from Robinot Frères for the 1931 Salon in Paris, providing a rare historical connection to its exhibition provenance. This major work exemplifies André Morisset’s signature style, featuring a divided or pointillist brushstroke reminiscent of Neo-Impressionism. The painting captures the delicate light of sunset through subtle gradations, revealing Morisset’s mastery of atmosphere, tonal harmony, and the subtleties of French landscape painting in the early 20th century. With a strong decorative sensibility, the work shows influences from Symbolist and Nabis painters, presenting a meditative landscape in which nature becomes nearly a spiritual motif. Tall pines, violet shadows, a shimmering pastel sky, and meticulously rendered foliage demonstrate a refined post-Symbolist aesthetic. Today, Morisset’s works are highly sought after by collectors of early 20th-century French painting, Symbolist landscapes, and Neo-Impressionist art. This painting embodies the “prolonged fin-de-siècle” style, bridging the elegance of late 19th-century French painting with the innovation of post-impressionist techniques, making it a rare and desirable addition to any collection of Neo-Impressionist and Symbolist landscapes. About the Artist: André Morisset (1876–1954) was a French painter active in the first half of the 20th century, known for blending late naturalism, landscape symbolism, and post-impressionist influences. He belonged to the generation that witnessed the rise of Impressionism, Pointillism, and luminous symbolism, and his work shows a keen attention to light, brushstroke rhythm, and atmospheric effects. Morisset exhibited at two major Parisian institutions: Salon des Artistes Français, an important venue for academic recognition Salon des Indépendants, a hub for modernity and avant-garde experimentation His participation in both salons highlights an artist capable of navigating between official academic circles and experimental avant-garde milieus, positioning his work at a rich crossroads of tradition and innovation.
