Louis Le Poittevin (1847-1909) ''cows In The Meadow On The Cliffs Of The Normandy Coast''
Artist: Louis Le Poittevin
Oil on canvas signed Louis Le Poittevin lower left
Born on May 23, 1847 in La Neuville-Chant-d'Oisel, where he died on April 3, 1909, Louis Le Poittevin remained Norman at heart. We owe him Norman and Orientalist landscapes. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1877 to 1907
Louis Le Poittevin is a French artist whose painting is solid and vigorous. In his works, the landscape is always studied with balance and the measured light gives the canvas an almost melancholic atmosphere. Coming from a family of scholars, Poittevin's father was a poet who was a friend of Flaubert and his cousin was Guy De Maupassant. His most famous work is ''The Spider web'' which depicts a winter landscape where frost and snow form tangled silk threads on the bushes purchased by the Reims Museum.
