- Lot Description
A luminous Post-Impressionist landscape by LŽon Detroy, rendered in oil on canvas and signed in the lower right. Measuring 49 x 59.5 cm and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, this work captures the vivid atmosphere of southern France-a region that intrigued Detroy throughout his itinerant artistic life. Born in 1857, LŽon Detroy studied at the ƒcole des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Jean-Paul Laurens. His encounter with Claude Monet and his subsequent reading of George Sand's novels inspired him to paint en plein air, especially in the Creuse Valley, where the so-called ÒCrozant school" of painters found enduring subjects. Traveling across Northern Europe, North Africa, Italy, and various regions of France-from Brittany to the Mediterranean-Detroy refined a tempered divisionism coupled with clear-cut colors. Critics and contemporaries like Vuillard, Bonnard, Friesz, and Anquetin admired his art, which presaged elements of Fauvism. While rooted in the broader Impressionist current, Detroy carved out a personal style, marked by a subtle balance of innovation and restraint.The item you're interested in is in good condition.
