Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

This poetic seaside view is by Godchaux. In a slightly misty atmosphere, the pinkish tone of the high cliffs bordering the shore evokes early morning. The landscape, bathed in a soft light, reminds us of those early summer mornings, when the coolness of the night vies with the rising sun for the warmth of its first rays. In the foreground, a fisherman near a boat on the shore is likely preparing to set sail. Émile Godchaux, a French painter, was born in Bordeaux around 1860 and died in the same city in 1938. The Benezit provides little information about him; he was probably from the same family as Alfred Godchaux; they painted the same themes in an identical manner, making it difficult to differentiate them. The signature is difficult to decipher; it was worn away by previous cleanings, and the last one we performed very slightly erased the "g" in Godchaux, which is unfortunately no longer decipherable.
