AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Armand Meffre (1929–2009) French actor and painter.
- Sète - La Pointe Courte - signed bottom right, countersigned and titled and on the back, original work, oil on canvas 54x73 cm, stretched on a frame.
Sète is not just a subject for Armand Meffre: it is a place deeply linked to his life and his work.
The port of Sète is one of Armand Meffre’s most cherished subjects. Fascinated by its port world, its quays, its boats and its installations, he reinterprets its shapes and colors, transforming the real landscape into powerful geometric compositions, on the edge of abstraction.
La Pointe Courte, historic and patrimonial district of Sète, is famous for its fishermen’s huts and its authentic atmosphere. Armand Meffre offers an interpretation in Cubist style, where boats, masts and architecture blend into a modern, luminous geometric composition, especially expressive.
A symbolic actor of theater and cinema, Armand Meffre has acted under the direction of major filmmakers alongside Philippe Noiret, Jean Rochefort or Gérard Depardieu.
Trained in painting by master André Lhote, he developed a sensitive, luminous and profoundly sensuous body of work.
His canvases, imbued with tenderness and poetry, reveal a deeply humane vision, between restrained emotion and sincere simplicity.
A complete artist, each painting tells a story and moves with its authenticity.
A highly talented artist with significant results in public sales. Participates in major international art fairs in the United States, China and Europe.
The painting has been photographed in the artist’s Studio at his original easel.
The works are widely present in private galleries and museums in Russia, Italy, the USA, the United Kingdom and China.
Certificate of authenticity signed by the artist will be given to the buyer.
Fast and secure worldwide shipping: UPS, FedEx, DHL.
