Emile Wegelin – Village In The Jura – Gouache – Signed

Beautiful gouache by Emile Wegelin depicting a river flowing through a village. We are in the Jura region, as evidenced by the onion-shaped bell tower and the region's characteristic reliefs. The watercourse is lined with tall houses on one side and lush vegetation on the other. The sky and its reflection add a bright touch to the whole.

The work is signed lower right. On the back, the work is located ("Jura River"), and we can also see the painter's stamp. The work is placed under glass and passepartout, in a modern gilded wood frame, also in excellent condition.

This painting was painted by Emile Wegelin, a Lyon painter known for his landscapes, done in gouache or oil. He was fond of mountainous landscapes and rivers. Before taking up painting, Emile Wegelin was a top-flight rower, winning a silver medal at the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris in the coxed four event.
