Oil on wood titled "Maison en Brière" and signed by Nazairian painter Émile Gautier (1920-2013).
Considered the painter of the Brière region and a lover of the Breton coast, Gautier began his career at an early age, exhibiting his paintings from the age of 18. As a drawing teacher, museum director and shipyard draftsman, Emile Gautier's main source of inspiration throughout his life was these coastal regions.
This painting depicts a small traditional house in the Brière region. This thatched cottage has a thatched roof and white dry-stone walls. The small courtyard is home to a few hens pecking near a pile of hay.
The work is enhanced by a molded gilded wood frame.
"Maison en Brière" is a real postcard of the Brière region of yesteryear.
