Eugène Fromentin
Two Horses with a Landscape

1850's

About the Item

Realistic painting of two horses in front of an old-fashioned building. The painting has a river or lake in the background with another horse. The painting is framed in a dark wooded frame. Dimensions without frame: 15.5 in W x 8.5 in H Artist Biography: Eugène Fromentin, born Oct. 24, 1820 and died in Aug. 27, 1876. He was a French painter and author, best known for his depictions of the land and people of Algeria. Influenced successively by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and Eugène Delacroix, Fromentin abandoned his early stiffness in design and execution and developed into a brilliant colourist. Fromentin’s paintings show only one side of a talent that was perhaps even more felicitously expressed in literature; “Dominique,” first published in the Revue des Deux Mondes in 1862 and dedicated to George Sand, is remarkable among the fiction of the century for imaginative observation. Fromentin’s other literary works are Visites artistiques ou Simples Pélerinages (1852–56; “Artistic Visits or Simple Pilgrimages”); Un Été dans le Sahara (1857; “A Summer in the Sahara”); Une Année dans le Sahel (1858; “A Year in the Sahel”); and Les Maîtres d’autrefois (1876; The Old Masters of Belgium and Holland, or The Masters of Past Time).
