Watercolor 13.5x23 cm "Lake at sunset" End of the 19th century
Signed lower right
Landscape painter, excellent watercolorist, Ernest Designolle followed the teaching of Harpignies and exhibited regularly in Paris at the Salon des Artistes Français.
In this watercolor with beautiful simplicity, we see that Designolle has assimilated the lesson of his master, evoking pure nature, without concern for anecdote, tending towards an almost abstract Impressionism.
