About the Item

Jules GENESTE Libourne, 1826 – Castillon-La-Bataille, 1889 The Well Oil on wood Signed lower left “J. GENESTE”30 x 38 cm (41 x 49 cm with the frame) Beautiful old gilt rod Very good condition As a gifted artist, Jules Geneste born in Libourne (South West of France) was as much a good draftsman, as painter, photographer, poet and pianist. But it was only on the occasion of the 13th exhibition of the Friends of the Arts of Bordeaux in 1864 that he seriously took up painting and exhibited no less than eight paintings which made him known. Jules Geneste painted both Normandy and the Gironde regions. Here he painted a small corner of the countryside with a lot of charm and a magnificent rendering of the material. This is probably the painting exhibited in 1864 at the Salon des Amis des Arts de Bordeaux “A Well; study" under number 231 at the same time as several seascapes in Normandy and "The cabin of Father Bonhomme, old fisherman near Dieppe" under number 231. "These paintings were noticed, especially number 230, and Mr. Henry Devier, the witty and piquant critic of the Gironde, complimented Mr. Geneste on this occasion, and devoted glowing quotes to him in his review of the Salon Bordelais of the recent exhibition." (Essay on painting and drawing in Angoulême (where Jules Geneste studied with the photographer Godard around 1860), 1866)

Théophile Clément BLANCHARD 1820 - 1849 Oil on canvas 27 x 40 cm (45 x 58 cm with the frame) Signed lower right "Blanchard" Very nice 19th century gilded wooden frame French painter, lithographer and illustrator, Théophile Clément Blanchard is part of of those painters of the romantic era who represented picturesque views of France like Alexis Daligé de Fontenay or Eugène Cicéri. These painters traveled a lot and sought out picturesque sites, particularly in Normandy, Brittany, Switzerland and the Pyrenees. Blanchard participated in the illustration of “Picturesque and Romantic Travels in the Old France”. But the works of this romantic painter are rare because Blanchard died very young at twenty-nine year old ! We still know of him, in particular, a view of Bugey (dated 1846) which is at the Louvre Museum and a “Delicious Landscape” (from the 1840s) at the Salies museum at Bagnères de Bigorre...
