"Emile Gauffriaud (1877-1957) Watercolor And Gouache "the Port Of Auray St Goustan" Brittany "
Watercolor enhanced with gouache, signed lower left representing the port of Auray St Goustan around 1930. Dimensions 39x31cm at sight, 47x39 cm in its gilded frame. Emile Gauffriaud, a Breton regionalist painter from Brest, shows here all his talent for representing port landscapes. His seascapes and views of ports are sought after by collectors, for their charm and their atmosphere. If he does not have the notoriety of his peers, it is also because he made the choice to stay in his country and not distribute his work through intermediaries other than the gallery run by his wife and daughter at Pouliguen
