About the Item

Paul Lecomte (1842-1920) La Ferme du Pré Oil on canvas signed on the lower right 38 x 55 cm Framed : 49 x 66.5 cm In good condition: a small repair visible on the reverse (see picture) Paul Lecomte had a particular fondness for scenes of country life and landscapes. In this respect, he followed in the footsteps of the painters of the Barbizon School, of whom he is often considered to be the last representative. This farm landscape perfectly captures the joy that the countryside inspired in the artist, with the little boy hiding in the bushes and the farmer feeding her chickens. He paints a simple life. However, as always with Lecomte, the composition is carefully considered and ordered: the tree on the left provides horizontal movement to a scene dominated by horizontal lines. It is this that gives the whole picture its harmony. Paul Lecomte was born in Paris on April 15, 1842. He was a painter of landscapes and coastal scenes. He is considered as one of the last quality representatives from the Barbizon School. He was the pupil of the painter Emile Lambinet (1813-1877) but the influence of Camille Corot and Henri Harpignies are the most noticeable in the developpement of his style. His art is deeply influenced by japonism just as his almost exact contemporary Claude Monet. He painted in Brittany, Normandy or South of France but also in England where he exhibited his works also. He exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon from 1868 onward, winning different medals and awards. He died in Paris on March 21, 1920. Works by his hand are held by the Louvre Museum and the Musée du Petit Palais in Paris the Musée des Beaux Arts in Mulhouse and the Musée Baron-Martin in Gray. Literature : Benezit, Schurr
