1 134 / 5 000 Résultats de traduction LOUIS ERNEST FORTUNÉ ANDRIEUX, SAYS FORTUNEY (French 1875-1951) Louis Ernest Fortuné Andrieux is a French painter, frescoist, engraver, lithographer and pastelist born in 1875. For reasons of disambiguation with Louis Andrieux, he takes the pseudonym of Fortuney. He is a friend of Rodin and painted with him in the south of France, in Cagnes-sur-mer. Fortuney is inspired by the sea, the Breton lights and those of the Mediterranean. He obtains the order from the State for important canvases intended to decorate the Ministry of the Navy, but has never, despite rumors, been an official painter of the Navy (see the collection of POM appointments). Fortuney painted numerous genre scenes of women in the streets of Pars, as well as marines. He is an expert in the handling of pastel, very fashionable in the Belle Epoque, and excels at rendering fabrics and skin tones velvety. Alongside a very Parisian inspiration, he deploys in his seascapes and in his port scenes sketched from life an incisive vigor, which contrasts with the virtusity of his genre scenes. Fortuney died in 1951
