"Snow Landscape By Paul Rue"
The artist will hardly leave the department of Indre - "this country more melancholic than grandiose" -, between its borders he turns out to be a nomadic landscaper: the Creuse valley, the surroundings of Poinçonnet, but especially Brenne are his favorite places of inspiration. Regarding the latter, in an autograph letter, he said he was seduced by its strange and captivating character. La Brenne and its ponds are also conducive to the expression of one's emotions, in a more directly poetic register, imbued with gentleness and serenity.
