Oil On Wood, *the Celebration* By François Du Mont
Artist: François Du Mont
DU MONT François, Frans
Born in 1850 in Brussels, 19th century. Belgian.
Genre painter.
He exhibited in Antwerp and Ghent in 1870, then participated in the Paris Salon in 1884 and 1885.
Du Mont painted classical genre scenes in the troubadour style, featuring many musketeers and beautiful ladies. He also enjoyed still lifes with beautiful flowers against dark backgrounds in vibrant colors.
He possesses a keen eye for detail and a strong sense of drawing, evident in this composition—which is punctuated by the figures’ dance movements—as well as in the architecture that frames the background.
He pays meticulous attention to each figure, capturing both their facial expressions and body language.
