Charming bucolic view with dreamlike colors by Joseph Lamberton, depicting an avenue ringed by hedges leading to a brick house. Signed work and nicely framed. Title: The Bucolic Alley Artist: Joseph Lamberton (1867-1943) Technique: watercolor Style: neo-impressionism Signature: Signed Artwork size: 20x27 cm Frame size: 43x47 cm Condition: Good condition, though a few frame imperfections (top corners). Superb watercolor of the "Renoir of Saint-Étienne": He discovers painting, frequents the studios of Jean-Paul Laurens and Benjamin-Constant at the Académie Julian (he enrolled there in 1895 and 1896), mingles with Jacques-Émile Blanche and Auguste Rodin. He married Adrienne Chapuson in 1892, a drawing and painting teacher at the École normale d'institutrices and at the École pratique de commerce et d'industrie of Saint-Étienne; she becomes his muse and collaborator. Although his talents as a portraitist and colorist are appreciated, Joseph Lamberton would reluctantly leave Parisian life and settle in Saint-Étienne after the death of his only son in 1905. From 1910 to 1913, he was the teacher of the sculptor Germaine de Roton.
