Bernard Lereboullet (1929–2024) — Interior Scene Around A Table, Oil On Canvas, Signed

A rare painting signed by B. Lereboullet, a priest of the Diocese of Nancy-Toul and parish priest of Saint-Nicolas-de-Port, a cultivated local figure and passionate art lover. Ordained in 1954, Bernard Lereboullet served in several parishes in Meurthe-et-Moselle while pursuing a spiritual and aesthetic reflection nourished by humanism and culture. This canvas, with its intimate composition, depicts three figures seated at a table in a hushed interior illuminated by soft light. The artist employs a restrained and harmonious palette—browns, grays, purples, and ochres—and an expressive, almost naive style, lending the scene an atmosphere that is both domestic and meditative. A sensitive work by a clergyman-artist, a discreet observer of 20th-century Lorraine life. A rare piece on the market. Details: Oil on canvas, signed lower right "B.
