Lot 1174 | Édouard Cortes
(1882 Lagny - 1969 ebenda)
Winterliche Straßenszene am Quai du Louvre in Paris
Abendliche Szenerie, die durch Passanten sowie eine Straßenbahn und eine Kutsche belebt wird. Motiv- und stiltypische, spätimpressionistische Ansicht des Künstlers, der den Quai du Louvre mehrfach als Herbst- und Winterstimmung malte. Cortes, der aus einer Malerfamile stammte, debütierte 1899 auf dem Salon in Paris; zu Beginn des 20. Jhs. wandte er sich Paris-Veduten mit subtil beobachteten Straßenszenen zu, in denen er effektvoll die Atmosphäre und das großstädtische Leben zu den unterschiedlichen Jahres- und Tageszeiten einfing. Durch Lichthöhungen und Farbakzente schilderte er virtuos sowohl die Wirkungen des Sonnenlichts als auch Regen- und Schneestimmungen mit Reflexen auf den Pfützen der Straßen. Diese Paris-Veduten Cortes' gehören zu den schönsten und begehrtesten Ansichten der Stadt. Öl/Lwd,; R. u. signiert; 33 cm x 46 cm. Rahmen.
Oil on canvas. Signed.
