Jean-victor Bertin (1767-1842) Study Of A Tree - Chestnut
Artist: Jean-victor Bertin
Jean-Victor BERTIN
(Paris, 1767 – Paris, 1842)
Study of a Tree, a Chestnut Tree
Black chalk
H. 34.5 cm; W. 26.5 cm
Signed lower right on the mount
Jean-Victor Bertin can probably be placed, after his master Valenciennes, in the second rank of French landscape painters known as "neo-classical" of the late 18th and first third of the 19th centuries, ahead of Bidauld, Dunouy, Chauvin, and Boguet. Among his best-known pupils were Corot, Michallon, and Daubigny. Very few of his drawings have survived. This vigorous study of a chestnut tree appears to date from the early 1790s, when he was still a student of Valenciennes.
