L'Ain, vu par les peintres du XIXe siècle / Université inter-âges de l'Ain
Présentation
Lecture by Michèle DUFLOT.
The Ain, as seen by 19th century painters.
Michèle DUFLOT
Barbizon inspired a number of 19th-century painters and saw the emergence of a generation of well-known landscape artists
such as Corot, Daubigny, Millet and Courbet.
Less well known, the Ain département was also a source of inspiration for painters, particularly those from Lyon, who found a wide variety of landscapes in our region - from the ponds of the Dombes to the mountainous landscapes of the Bugey.
But they weren't the only ones: Utrillo stayed at the Château de Saint-Bernard for several years, and a number of artists settled here permanently, enlivening the cultural life of Aindenne. These included Johannes Son, Louis-René Boulanger, Henri Bidault and Félicien Proust.
In this talk, we'll focus on the first of these; the others can be mentioned at a later date, as the subject is so vast.
