François Lespinasse, great specialist and expert of the Norman School, summarizes the biography of Pierre Dumont as follows: 4
1903-1905: First paintings and meetings with Louvrier, Pinchon, Fréchon, Delattre
1905-1908: “Fauve” period with large vigorous touches, landscapes around Rouen, Ile Lacroix, Varengeville, harvest scenes…treated with pure colors. He meets Angrand, Fréchon, Matisse, Vlaminck, Friez, Marquet, Derain.
1908-1927: Period of portraits including those of Pinchon and Apollinaire, punctuated by a short transition to Cubism including a famous “Homage to Cézanne”
1910-1927: Progressive acquisition of a clean and unique style with the series of cathedrals of Rouen, rue de l'Epicerie, still lifes, the quays of Paris and Notre-Dame...
From this date, he suffered several strokes accompanied by delirious anger and in 1934, paralyzed in his right hand, he stopped to paint. He produced a few “left hand” paintings and died in April 1936 at the age of 52.
