Noély Duluc - View Taken From Cap Ferret Overlooking The Arcachon Basin - Dune Du Pilat - Circa 1920
Artist: Noély Duluc ( 1864 - 1952)
Noély DULUC (1864-1952)
View of the Arcachon Basin and the Dune of Pilat taken from Mimbeau, at the tip of Cap Ferret
Circa 1920
Oil on canvas, signed lower right
27 x 41 cm
Minor restoration in the sky, invisible to the naked eye, and tension strips. Otherwise, very good condition.
Noély DULUC (1864-1952) is one of the very few female artists to have painted the Arcachon Basin at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. She was a student of Amédée BAUDIT (1826-1890) and Louis Auguste AUGUIN (1824-1903), himself considered the leader of the Bordeaux landscape school. She exhibited from the 1880s onwards at the salons of Bordeaux and Toulouse, and with the Society of Gironde Artists.
This view was taken around 1920 from the tip of Cap Ferret at a place called "Le Mimbeau," where sandbanks form at low tide. Fishermen are busy around their boats or donkeys before nightfall. The Dune du Pilat, clearly visible in the background, is illuminated by the rays of the late afternoon sun. A rare, picturesque, and highly poetic image of the Arcachon Basin, in a skillful composition where the sky occupies two-thirds of the canvas.
