This is a superb post-impressionist composition by Albert Malet, who here paints an extract of a garden under the snow with a staircase and gate, located in Gouville. His technique is emblematic, with broad strokes in the manner of Albert Marquet and a most delicate palette of whites, mauves, ochres, browns, yellows and blacks....
I no longer need to introduce Albert Marquet, a key painter of the famous Rouen School.
Albert Malet, born April 5, 1912 in Bosc-le-Hard, and died September 4, 1986 in Rouen, was a French painter of the Rouen School.

A student of Robert Antoine Pinchon, Albert Malet began painting in 1931. He took part in exhibitions organized by the Société des artistes rouennais.
He exhibited three works at the Salon de l'école française at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris in 1942.
Albert Malet is buried in Claville-Motteville, where he was a schoolteacher from 1947 to 1960.
