Biography:
Alfred BRUNEL DE NEUVILLE 1852 / 1941
Alfred Arthur Brunel-Neuville (or Brunel de Neuville), born in Paris in 1852 and died in the same city in 1941, is a French genre painter, author of still lifes and paintings of animals, notably cats. He was a student of Léon Brunel. Member of the Society of French Artists, he has taken part in exhibitions since 1879. Brunel de Neuville is the painter of still lifes; he exalts its velvety texture, the precision of the feathers, hairs, etc. by contrasting them with the dry material of the wicker baskets and the wood of the table. He manages to paint subtle variations. He exhibited at the Salon from 1879, small canvases depicting games between cats and kittens, which were then very popular with art lovers. In 1909 he exhibited in Nîmes Young Cats and Peaches and Grapes “Eleventh exhibition in Nîmes, 1909.
