"Port Of Concarneau By Guy Pennamen (1932-2022)"
Concarneau's lively Breton port, made up of small touches of light and shadow, particularly demonstrates Guy Pennamen's pictorial mastery.Born in Quimperlé in 1932, Guy Pennamen spent almost his entire life in Concarneau, the "walled city," where he divided his time between his personal paintings and those of the greatest Breton painters, which he exhibited in his own gallery.This painter, in love with the Breton coast, translates his love for the sea, his town of Concarneau, but also for the light it emanates through this painting.Here, he enjoys transcribing the scene and the bustle of this port, its elegant boats, the passersby, and the peaceful atmosphere.Guy Penenamen (1932-2022) was a former student of Godeby, a former student of the Fine Arts School of Quimper, a graduate and medalist of the Tours Institute, a silver medalist in the Arts, Sciences and Letters School of Paris, a silver cross of merit for French devotion, and an expert on the marine painter Maurice Menardeau (1897-1977).He exhibited and won numerous awards at various salons in France, primarily in Brittany, the Loire Valley, and central France.His works have been auctioned over 200 times, and are listed and highly valued in Akoun and Artprice.This oil on canvas is signed lower right by Guy Pennamen, a Breton painter.The oil painting measures 65 x 46.4 cm.Good overall condition; a light cleaning may be required.Delivery by specialized carrier with appropriate protection, upon request.Contact me at 0678876161
