Pierre de Clausade
Coastal Seascape Landscape Painting with Boats by 20th Century French Artist

1972

About the Item

Coastal Seascape Landscape Painting with Boats by 20th Century French Artist, Pierre de Clausade (1910-1976). Oil on canvas, Signed on the lower right, Titled "Vers Le Large, Bretagne" on rear. Art measures 21.5 x 18 inches Frame measures 27.5 x 24 inches Presented in a high quality hand finished frame The sanitised realism of Clausade's cloudscapes are unmistakable, and the dramatic way in which he captures the bright sunlight reflecting on the landscape is a perfect balance to the dark intensity of the clouds. Pierre de Clausade was born in Paris in 1910 and held his first exhibition in Paris in 1943, which was a phenomenal success. Pierre de Clausade exhibited regularly at the Societe des Beaux Arts and became a member of the Salon d'Hiver. His fame spread abroad and he exhibited as far afield as Rio de Janeiro, Boston & New York. His paintings entered many distinguished collections, including that of the Brazilian Ambassador and the Boston and Minneapolis Museums of Fine Art. Despite this success, Clausade continued to develop his technique, striving for perfection and the satisfaction of his analytical nature. He delights us with his creation of a world of solitude, which expresses at the same time the beauty of nature, particularly the enchantment and inspiration of great cloud masses. Pierre de Clausade was awarded the great honour of the Medaille d'Argent by the jury of the Paris Salon in 1953.

One cannot help but marvel at the way Gritten conveys depth and volume through his use of various shades and the subtle haze of perspective, creating a sense of distance and space that is captivating.
