Born in Le Havre in 1935, Jean Levasseur establishes himself as one of the great witnesses of Norman light. A painter deeply rooted in his Cauchoise land, he has been celebrating the region's shores, ports, and countryside for decades with rare sincerity. His paintings, powerful and vibrant, capture the moment when reality shifts into emotion: stormy skies, subtle transparencies, warm colors, and generous textures compose a work that is immediately recognizable.
A faithful artist to the sea, Levasseur tirelessly returns to paint the agitated waves, the beaches of Sainte-Adresse, the entrance to the port of Le Havre, or the shores of the Channel. His landscapes, both familiar and poetic, open true windows onto a lively, luminous, and ever-renewing Normandy. Each painting offers a remarkable balance between observation of reality and inner imagination, giving his compositions an expressive strength that touches us immediately.
Jean Levasseur is captivated by his authenticity, mastery of color, and his ability to convey, with an energetic and sensitive touch, the simple and exhilarating beauty of maritime landscapes. Owning a work by Levasseur means welcoming a vibrant fragment of Normandy into your home, filled with light, movement, and emotion.
