Vintage Painting, Oil on Canvas, Coastal Seascape, Roger de la Corbiere
This exquisite oil painting by Roger de la Corbiere beautifully captures the serene and captivating coastline of Saint Lunaire, Brittany, located in northwest France. With masterful technique, de la Corbiere renders the natural luminosity of the sea and surrounding landscape, where the glistening waters shimmer under a golden sun. The artist’s use of light and colour creates an atmospheric quality, inviting viewers to experience the tranquillity of this picturesque coastal scene. Signed by the artist in the lower right corner, the piece is presented in an elegant frame that complements the artwork’s refined aesthetic.
A celebrated figure in French art, de la Corbiere exhibited his works at prestigious venues, including the Paris Salon and the Salon des Independants, earning multiple honours such as the Silver Medal in 1954 and the Bronze Medal in 1957. His works have been acquired by notable institutions such as the French State, the Maynard Gallery in Ottawa, and the USSR’s Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. This seascape is a prime example of his ability to evoke the essence of the natural world with a sophisticated balance of light, colour, and emotion.
