Description: Rare opportunity to own an original Paul Emile Lecomte (1877-1950) oil on canvas listed artist painting of French Brittany coastal scene. A student of his father, Paul Lecomte, Sr., (1842-1920), the young man developed his ability in concert with a large extended family of noted artists. He studied at the Beaux-Arts in Paris with Cormon. Paul Emile Lecomte excelled in portraying the natural settings of France's bio-diversity. His landscapes varied widely from marketplaces to isolated country sides, and he seems to have favored marine scenes with people about their routines. A majority of his works portray the Normandy & Brittany Coast. A member of the Salon des Artistes Francais since 1902, he exhibited quite often and won a gold medal for his work. He was an official painter for the French Ministry of Marine department. His impressionist's technique is quite well-developed, with an implied structural sense for reality. Lecomte's work continues not only on his father's path, but harkens back to the days of Boudin, with whom it is likely the young artist briefly crossed paths with along the harbors of northern France. The Paintings of Paul Emile Lecomte Are Extremely Popular in Europe and New York Art Markets and Have an Expanding Audience Worldwide. His works have sold at top auction houses such as Christie's in South Kensington for $26,563. Recent auction results in 2019 realized $34,010 for one of his works. His auction record high has been $40,479.00 USD. Measurements: 14" x 18" - Total Framed 18" x 22" Condition: Excellent condition no issues.
