About the Item

Conditions : Very good overall Conditions. Original canvas and french period frame. Signed on the lower left part E Renouf. . Dimensions incl frame 32 x 40 inches or 80 x 100 cm approx. Biography He studied at the Imperial Bonaparte high school in Paris and had as a friend Jacinthe Pozier, who also became a painter. The Pozier family will subsequently be of great help and unwavering friendship to him. After classical studies, he entered the Académie Julian and was a student of Gustave Boulanger, Jules Lefebvre and Charles Duran. Passionate about classical music, admirer of Beethoven, Gluck and Mozart, he goes with his friends almost every Sunday to applaud the works at the Pasdeloup concerts. He exhibited his first works at the Paris Salon of Painting and Sculpture between 1877 and 1881. He received the gold medal at the 1889 Universal Exhibition in Paris. “Strong constitution, built like a real sea dog, a blond bearded man who holds the brush as well as the oar; with that a true poet, who loves nature and spends his time among the harsh population of sea workers, which does not prevent him from also seeking his impressions elsewhere5. » He painted marine and peasant themes, often Breton, particularly after a stay on the Île de Sein. His Parisian workshop being in a terrible state, he had a new workshop built in Le Havre where he died6. His works can be found in museums in France in Amiens, Le Havre, Rouen, Liège and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York “The Widow [in fact The Widow of the Island of Sein] by M. Renouf is an excellent painting. The unfortunate woman, dressed in long mourning clothes, kneels in front of the grave where lies her loved one taken from her by the merciless Ocean that roars behind her. Next to him stands the orphan; his young thoughts are not absorbed by this dark idea of ​​death; she floats, distracted, in his childish gaze. The feeling, which is intense and envelops the entire canvas, compensates for the inexperience of the too broad execution. But what is most remarkable is the effect of this distant sea reflecting the white and sparkling light of the sky. This is enough to make many landscapers envious8” He is buried in the Sainte-Marie cemetery in Le Havre.
