Charles Malfroy was born on May 22nd 1862 in Lyons and was a painter of seascapes.
He was a prolific artist and his work is held in many private collections throughout the world-typical titles were “Small Harbour on the Inland Sea at Berre” and “Fishing boats in Martigues Harbour” (both oil on canvas).
Malfroy had an instantly recognisable style, and he spent most of his career painting coastal scenes and Mediterranean ports from Bouches-du-Rhone to the Var, specializing in views of of Martigues in particular, he liked to paint along its banks. Martigues, known as the “Venice of Provence”, located on the edge of the Etang de Berre and Caronte Canal, which connects the lake to the Mediterranean, and especially its port then inspired many artists in the mid-nineteenth century, such Raymond_Allègre (1857-1933), Henri Théophile Decanis (1847-1917) and of course Felix Ziem (1821-1911) who established there his workshop.
Charles Malfroy himself settled in Martigues and his studio was taken in the first half of the twentieth century by his son Henry Malfroy. As a follower of the post-impressionist artist Jean-Baptiste Olive (1848-1936), a maritime landscape painter from Marseille, Charles Malfroy was much appreciated for his clear tones and his ability to deal with the Mediterranean light, subtly transposing on his palette the sky and the sea. From Le Havre to Venice, he painted tirelessly in an almost unreal clarity atmospheric effects arising from the merging of these elements.
