CADIERRA Louis (19th-20th century)
"The Estérel at Nightfall"
Oil on canvas,
Signed lower right,
Titled and numbered on the back of the stretcher by the artist "No. 1947 The Estérel (French Riviera)",
Artist's cartouche on the frame.
A beautiful, high-contrast work by the painter Louis Cadierra depicting a seaside scene at nightfall, most likely at Cap Roux or near Lion de Terre in the Estérel mountains.
The painter's palette is delicate, the interplay of light is masterfully achieved, and the impasto of his paint gives relief and depth to his composition.
Of Italian origin, Louis Cadierra primarily painted landscapes of the French Riviera, but also of Italy (Venice) and North Africa (Morocco and Tunisia) during his travels. The painter paid particular attention to the interplay of light and color choices in his compositions to represent as faithfully as possible what he saw.
See note: Very minor old restoration, without impact.
Dimensions: 22 x 27 cm unframed and 27 x 32 cm with its original giltwood frame.
The companion piece to this work, "The Fortress on Île Saint-Honorat," is also for sale.
