Description
Pierre-Justin OUVRIÉ (Paris, 1806 – Rouen, 1879) A lively path of figures in a village with a fortified tower Watercolour and gouache over pencil lines Signed and dated ‘Justin Ouvrié. 1871’ in the lower right-hand corner A lively path with figures in a village featuring a fortified tower, watercolour and gouache over pencil, signed and dated, by P.-J. Ouvrié 5.31 x 8.46 in. 13.5 x 21.5 cm Provenance: Private European collection As part of her personal artistic practice, Charlotte de Rothschild benefited from the guidance and tuition of Paul Flandrin, Hercule Trachel and Nélie Jacquemart-André. With Hercule Trachel, who became her teacher in 1858, she travelled to Italy on more than five occasions, particularly to Venice, a city that inspired her and became a central theme in her work from 1858 onwards. The watercolour views of Venice by Pierre-Justin Ouvrié, twenty years her senior, must undoubtedly have been a major source of inspiration for Charlotte.
