Oil on canvas
French artist Jean-Louis Lefort captures the bustling streets of Paris on a grand scale in this vibrant oil on canvas, entitled Place de la Trinité, Paris. The subject is the historic Église de la Sainte-Trinité in the heart of Paris’ 9th arrondissement on a blustery fall day. Lefort depicts the historic thoroughfare at the height of the day, as vehicles and pedestrians alike traverse streets under the golden glow of the afternoon sun.
Lefort masterfully renders the imposing facade of Sainte-Trinité against a blue sky punctuated by billowing clouds. Built under the reign of Emperor Napoleon III, Sainte-Trinité’s ornate exterior towers over the square and city streets, bustling with cars and pedestrians alike. The artist’s attention to detail and effusive brushstrokes heighten the highly dynamic cityscape. The setting chosen by Lefort offered a wealth of inspiration to artists throughout history, including Impressionist master Pierre-Auguste Renoir, who rendered his Place de la Trinité in 1875.
Born in Bordeaux, Jean-Louis Lefort completed his artistic studies in Paris, where he initially gained prominence as a watercolor painter of the iconic urban landscape. Lefort exhibited widely in Paris, including at the Salon des Artistes Indépendants and the Salon of the Société des Aquarellistes Français, of which he was a committee member. Also counted as a Chevalier in the prestigious Légion d’Honneur, Lefort’s work remains prized among private collectors.

- La Porte Saint Denis, Paris - Post Impressionist Cityscape Oil by Lucien GeninBy Lucien GéninLocated in Marlow, BuckinghamshireSigned oil on original canvas figures in landscape circa 1930 by French post impressionist painter Lucien Genin. The work is centred around the Porte Saint-Denis - a triumphal arch located in Paris, France. The street is bustling with city-goers and cars pass by the tall buildings painted in red, yellow and white. Signature: Signed lower left Dimensions: Framed: 27"x31" Unframed: 20"x24" Provenance: Private French collection Lucien Génin came from a family of stone-cutters. He first studied at the art school in Rouen, then in 1919 entered the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. He settled in Montmartre early in the 1920s, and in 1936 moved to the Latin Quarter. Although he had received a thorough training, he created his own completely spontaneous technique aiming at approaching his subjects with a fresh look. Beside a few views of Rouen, Lorient, Dinan and Villefranche-sur-Mer, Génin specialised in the popular theme of views of Paris. He worked swiftly, making rapid jottings, and thus could produce many paintings. At auction his pictures were sometimes sold in lots. He painted both in oils and in gouache. Lucien Génin showed work at the Salon d'Automne in 1926 and 1930. His work featured at the Marcel Aymé and the Painters exhibition, Galerie Roussard...Category
