Lucien Potronat was a French painter best known for his depictions of picturesque villas set in the countryside of the French Riviera. The artist painted with a warm, muted palette, and utilised loose brushstrokes like those of Impressionist Claude Monet.
Born in 1889 in Lyon, France, he went on to study art there, later moving to Paris where he began exhibiting his work at the Salon. Potronat’s love of the French Riviera led to him permanently moving there in the 1930s. Notably, he is the father of the artist Jean Potronat. His work is in the collection of the Southport Arts Centre in the United Kingdom. Potronat died in 1974 in France.

- Hotel d'Aligre, Rouen - Architectural France Normandy Impressionist Oil PaintingBy Lord Paul Ayshford MethuenLocated in Sevenoaks, GBThis charming oil on board by Lord Paul Ayshford Methuen RA depicts the Hotel d'Aligre at 30 Rue Damiette, Rouen in Normandy, France. The building, which is a 16th century mansion in the centre of the city, still exists today. The painting shows the back wing of the building with the access porch to the main courtyard. Please see final image for a present day view with the addition of windows in the roof. The work was most likely painted during or just after WW2, when Methuen was serving as a captain in the British Army. He wrote a book ''Normandy Diary'' recounting his experiences with the Procurement and Fine Art branch, which was set up to protect works of art during the invasion of the continent. A finely painted and atmospheric work which clearly shows the influence of Methuen's one time teacher Walter Sickert. Signed on the reverse and presented in a beautiful gilt frame.

Born at Corsham in Wiltshire he studied art under Sir Charles Holmes and later under Walter Sickert.

He lived in London and at the family home at Corsham Court in Wiltshire, where he established an influential art school in 1946. Further information The Hôtel d'Aligre is a private mansion located in Rouen , France. The first body of building on this location was called the Hôtel des Presses or Hôtel des Étuves , owned by the wealthy Dufour manufacturing family. Mentioned for the first time in 1446, it was rebuilt in the second half of the 16th century by Guillaume de Fieu. Guillaume Le Fieu (November 9, 1584) was treasurer-secretary to Catherine de Medici then receiver general of the Generality of Rouen and finally ordinary master of the Chamber of Accounts of Normandy.
