About the Item

André LEMAITRE (1909-1995) Nu de dos, 1980 Oil on canvas Size : 73 x 60 cm Signed lower right Tille and dated on reserve Painting in very good condition. Gilded frame offered. Size with frame: 92 x 78 cm Provenance: - Galerie Tuffier, Les Andelys, - Private collection, Normandy Sold with invoice and certificate of authenticity. Fast and careful shipping with insurance. Through his paintings, the viewer apprehends a beautiful and intense local breath, that of the Pays d'Auge and its immediate surroundings. Alain Tapié notes about him: "Normandy is his locality, but we do not believe that he remains a prisoner of it. He subjects it to a perpetual interrogation." (Extract from the catalog of the 1992 exhibition at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Caen). A tireless worker, André Lemaitre followed a solitary and secret path, and traced far from fashions, critics and cities, the contours of a vigorous and powerful work, landscapes and still lifes, portraits and bouquets, nudes and rivers, all his paintings tell the stubborn quest of a man firmly anchored in reality, in this Norman land where one sinks, but where dreams cling to the gallop of the clouds. If the sun sometimes stops at the bend of a bouquet, illuminates a body or a face, it is in a universe dominated by grays and greens that André Lemaitre walked his talent, and a fervent melancholy like a character from Maupassant. René Garrec
