Jean Achille B\u00e9nouville<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paris 1815 – 1891<\/p>\n

Grove of trees<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Charcoal heightened with white chalk on grey paper.<\/p>\n

319 x 409 mm – 12 9\/16 x 16 1\/8 in.<\/p>\n

Provenance: Studio stamps Lugt 228 B<\/a> on the recto, lower left, and Lugt 228a<\/a> (numbered 132), on the verso; probably in the studio sale, Paris, 16 Januray 1901 (expert G. Petit).<\/p>\n

Jean Achille B\u00e9nouville was trained in Paris first under L\u00e9on Cogniet and then \u00c9douard Picot, and traveled to Italy on several occasions even before winning the Rome Prize. In 1843-1844 he met Corot in Rome and worked with him. In 1845, while his brother L\u00e9on won the first prize for history painting, his Ulysses and Nausicaa earned him the Grand prize for historical landscape. He left for the regulation four years of study in Rome, where he remained in reality for 25 years. He continued, all the same, to send works frequently to the Salon and to visit France. Only in 1871 did he definitely return to Paris, three years before the first Impressionist exhibition. <\/p>\n

B\u00e9nouville\u2019s extended stay in the Eternal City had kept him apart from the innovations in landscape painting, especially the Realism of Courbet and the Barbizon School. He continued to promote a classical tradition enriched with different influences assimilated in Rome, which has led to Marie-Madeleine Aubrun writing that \u201cif there is one artist who illustrates, undeniably and in a seductive manner, the continuity of classical landscape until the stampede of the Impressionists, it is the independent painter Jean- Achille B\u00e9nouville\u201d (Marie-Madeleine Aubrun, Achille B\u00e9nouville 1815-1891, 1986, p. 46).<\/p>\n

B\u00e9nouville executed numerous studies of trees on this typical grey paper, striking by their simplicity and modernity. He shows trees as individual subjects, worthy of interest beyond their vocation to be inserted in a painted historical landscape. His placing this tree on the right side of the sheet and leaving a large part of the bare paper on the left side, as well as the intelligent repartition of light contrasts in the branches, reveal the artist\u2019s perception of the tree as an independent and meaningful per se graphic pattern. These characteristics can also be found in a drawing at the Petit Palais.<\/p>\n
