Beautiful luminous work by the Marseille painter Théophile Décanis which represents a landscape with broom in bloom near a Provencal farmhouse, certainly on the heights of the Etang de Berre where the artist liked to paint.
The artist used a colorful palette and played on contrasts in order to meticulously represent the vegetation and the shades of colors of a sunny day.
A student of Jean-Baptiste Olive, Théophile Décanis was initially an engraver before turning to painting. He exhibited at the Salon of French Artists from 1884 to 1905 landscapes of Provence. His work is hailed by critics and has earned him numerous awards during his participation in the Salons and exhibitions of the Association of Marseille Artists.
Théophile Décanis is recognized and reputed to be "a crude and exquisite prince of Provençal landscapes".
His works are kept in several museums such as Montpellier, Avignon, Amiens, Marseille.
Dimensions: 54 x 74 cm without its frame and 76 x 94.5 cm with its original gilded wooden frame.
