Description from the seller
GAUTIER Louis (1855-1947)
"Le Pavillon Vendôme rue de la Molle à Aix en Provence, 1940"
Oil on cardboard,
Signed and dated 1940 at the bottom right,
Titled, dated and countersigned on the back of the cardboard: "Aix, Rue de la Molle, Etude 1940 - LG"
Various inscriptions: "Mr Laugier" and "450Fr"
Beautiful work finely detailed by the Aixois painter Louis Gautier, depicting a rare view of Rue de la Molle in Aix-en-Provence. The artist depicted on the left of the street the Pavillon Vendôme, owned by Henri Dobler from 1906 until his death in 1941 before being bequeathed to the City. Today, the place is a museum and exhibition venue that hosts, notably in 2025, the Cézanne exhibition.
Rue de la Molle is located 500 meters from Villa Acanthe, where Louis Gautier lived and had his studio.
A pupil of Cabanel, Louis François Gautier exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1884 and participated in regional exhibitions in Aix, Avignon, Marseille and Montpellier. He obtained the commission for the decorations of the City Hall and the Aix-en-Provence theatre.
In 1894, with painter Edouard Ducros, he founded the Société des Amis des Arts d’Aix, then in 1901, an ethnographic museum.
He is also known for being one of Paul Cézanne’s fiercest adversaries.
His works are conserved notably at the Musée Granet.
Dimensions: 17 x 9 cm without the frame and 20 x 12.5 cm with its original gold wooden frame.
We note the publication of a work devoted to the artist: "Louis Gautier (1855-1947) Painter of Villa Acantha", in which more than 120 works are reproduced.
If you wish to purchase the book, we will gladly provide you with the information to order it from its publisher.
