Superb c.1900’s French Impressionist Signed Oil Wild Meadows & Trees Landscape

Artist/ School: Henri Dreyfus-Lemaître (1878 – 1947), signed lower right corner. Henri Dreyfus-Lemaître (1878 – 1947) was a French artist born in Amiens associated with the post-impressionist movement. His studio at Frépillon, bordering Auvers-sur-Oise, allowed him to exchange with the great masters of the City. Counting among his friends Émile Bernard, Émile Schuffeneker and Paul Gauguin during his period in Pont-Aven, he is a member of the Salon d’Automne and took part in the salon des indépendants. His particular use of Pointillism, a theory founded by Georges Seurat, reveals a perfect mastery of the juxtaposition of complementary colors, and makes him a painter unfairly little known. Close to the divisionist painters, notably Maximilien Luce or Lucien Pissarro, he is also very impregnated with Impressionist theories, and very often choosing naturalistic subjects, he tried to work on the outdoor motif. Title: Landscape with wild meadows and trees. The artist has captured the movement and light superbly. Medium: oil on canvas, unframed Canvas: 10.5 x 16 inches Provenance: private collection, France Condition: The painting is in overall very good and sound condition.
