"Henri Callot (1875–1956) House At Ker Bossy – île d'Yeu"
Henri Callot (1875–1956) House at Ker Bossy – Île d'Yeu. Oil on panel, signed Henri Callot, depicting a scene of rural life typical of the Île d'Yeu, specifically located at Ker Bossy (location indicated on the back). The composition shows a whitewashed Vendée-style house with a weathered tile roof, opening onto a courtyard enlivened by stone walls, vegetation, and flowerpots. In the background, the sea is visible on the horizon, a recurring element in Callot's work, highlighting the close link between dwellings and the island's maritime landscape. The brushwork is lively and deliberate, with a luminous palette and a beautiful rendering of materials (stones, walls, ground), characteristic of Henri Callot's work when painting the Île d'Yeu. This work fits perfectly within his oeuvre devoted to island and coastal scenes, which are highly prized by collectors.
