LouisNicolas CABAT (1812–1893)
Winter in the Forest of Fontainebleau
CABAT was a leading figure of the Barbizon School
The scene depicts a winter landscape in the Forest of Fontainebleau, characterized by bare trees with slender silhouettes, rocks emblematic of the region, and a low sun on the horizon piercing the misty sky
For Louis CABAT: art is not a study of positive reality, but a search for the ideal truth
This painting marks the precise moment of the shift in CABAT’s style
Our painting was exhibited at the 1836 Salon
It is signed in the lower left corner
It is referenced in Pierre Miquel’s book "The French Landscape in the 19th Century"
1824–1874: The School of Nature, page 498
It is on its original canvas, presented in a beautiful 19th-century channel frame
Dimensions with frame: 114 x 87 cm
