Description from the seller
NATTERO Louis (1870-1915)
"La Pointe du Brescon aux Martigues"
Oil on panel,
Signed bottom right,
Beautiful work by the Marseille painter Louis Nattero which depicts the fishermen's quarter at Martigues, more commonly known as the Pointe du Brescon. The artist captures the liveliness of this neighborhood by depicting on the quay in the foreground and in their boats on the water or moored at the fishermen's quay.
The work is finely executed and perfectly transcribes, through its play of light, the atmosphere of a summer day in Provence.
After an unhappy childhood, placed in an orphanage, he turned to painting. In 1891, he married in Toulon.
At the age of 26, thanks to a grant from the city of Toulon, he became a pupil of Léon Bonnat in Paris. However, afflicted with saturnism, he was forced to shorten his Paris studies. He then returned to Toulon before settling permanently in Marseille, his hometown, in 1904.
His talent was quickly recognized and his paintings met with lively success among the Marseille and Toulon clientele.
He began participating in exhibitions in Toulon and Marseille from 1902 where his talent was rewarded with numerous prizes.
Dimensions: 19 x 45 cm without frame and 35 x 60.5 cm with its original carved and gilded wooden frame.
Our work can form a pair with the artist's other painting "La route blanche le long de l'étang de Berre" currently for sale.
