Object description :

"Henri Pontoy (1888-1968) "water Collection" Oil On Canvas "
Henri Pontoy (1888-1968) was a French Orientalist painter known for his vibrant scenes of North and sub-Saharan Africa. His style, influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, is characterized by a bold use of color and brilliant light. The painting I present to you is a scene of daily life in tropical Africa, possibly West Africa. It shows figures on a riverbank, engaged in activities such as carrying baskets and collecting water. The lush environment, with its banana trees and tropical vegetation, reinforces the hot and humid atmosphere of the place. The use of bright colors and play of shadows suggests a lively and authentic scene, capturing local life with both an artistic and ethnographic eye. These scenes are typical of 20th-century Orientalist and colonial painters, who sought to transcribe exotic, often idealized scenes from the non-European world. This painting demonstrates the way PONTOY viewed these regions, combining realism and pictorial aesthetics. Dimensions of the work without frame: 90 x 65
