About the Item

1864-1959 French
Soleil levant, vallée de la Dordogne (Sunrise, Dordogne Valley)
Signed "Didier-Pouget" (lower right)
Oil on canvas
The majesty of the French countryside comes alive in this radiant masterpiece, Soleil levant, vallée de la Dordogne, by William Didier-Pouget. This remarkable, monumental landscape epitomizes the artist's mastery of light and atmosphere, transporting the viewer to the picturesque Dordogne Valley in southern France.
br> Bathed in the warm golden hues of sunrise, this composition showcases Didier-Pouget's precise brushwork and meticulous attention to detail. An airy, colorful haze illuminates the sky, offering a dramatic contrast to the bold, verdant greens of the pasture and trees. Didier-Pouget imbues the scene with a captivating sense of serenity and quiet grandeur, further emphasized by the painting's immersive scale that measures more than 8 feet across.
Born in Toulouse in 1859, William Didier-Pouget was a prominent landscape painter of the Crozant school, known for his ability to capture the essence of the natural world with remarkable precision and sensitivity. Inspired by the Impressionist movement, Didier-Pouget sought to infuse his works with a sense of immediacy and spontaneity, often painting en plein air to capture the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere. The Dordogne Valley, depicted in here, was a favorite subject of Didier-Pouget's at the height of his career in the early 1900s. During this period, he exhibited his work internationally, and his clients included influential politicians and world leaders, including the president of France and George I of Greece.

Graner, 1925" (lower right) Oil on canvas 20-1/8 X 30 inches (51X 76 cm.) framed: 25-3/4 X 35-3/4 inches (65 X 90.5 cm.) PROVENANCE NEAL AUCTION COMPANY, New Orleans, LA, USA Private Collection, Barcelona Graner paints this work, Moonlit on the river, during his stay in the United States in the last stage of his artistic life, from 1910 to 1928, in full stage of maturity. This artwork reflects the constant search of the artist for the effects of light in his work. This persistent concern for light remains throughout his artistic life, which he learned in his Parisian stage under the influence of the painter Frances Platour. The silver light of the moon and the small lights at distance, which are tiny foci of artificial light, reflecting the river water, forming a chromatic range of greens, ocher and pearly that give a certain mystery to the composition, creating a modern approach to the landscape, by placing the two large trees at the edge of the river in the foreground Luís Graner y Arrufí, Spanish (1863–1929) was a Catalan painter in the Realistic style. He was born in Barcelona, and studied at the Escola de la Llotja from 1883, with Antoni Caba (color/composition) and Benet Mercadé (drawing). During his final year at school, he received a grant to study in Madrid, where he copied and learned from the Old Masters at the Museo del Prado. After that, supported by a fellowship, he moved to Paris and became a member of the Academie des Beaux-Arts. Later, he returned to Barcelona, but continued to travel to cities throughout Europe, including Berlin, Munich and Düsseldorf. Influenced by Richard Wagner's concept of "Gesamtkunstwerk" (Total Work of Art), he was motivated to create his own total art experience and organized the "Sala Mercè" (Mercy Hall) in Barcelona's Rambla District. The project involved contributors from every artistic discipline, including the new field of cinematography. The room was decorated by Antoni Gaudí. Other participants included Adrià Gual, Santiago Rusiñol, Ramon Casas...Category
