Beautiful and large work of the painter René Seyssaud which represents a landscape animated by peacocks under oaks at Font-Ségugne in Châteauneuf-de-Gadagne (Vaucluse). The artist creates a composition with the serif of matter, contrasts and play of light.Our work was produced around 1915.

We can compare our work with another painting by the artist "Nudes under the oaks at Font-Ségugne" (Toulouse-Lautrec Museum in Albi) which represents this same place. This other canvas is currently visible, until January 17, 2020 , in the exhibition "René Seyssaud, exalted colors" at the Museum of Fine Arts in Nîmes.

A student of Pierre Grivolas at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts d'Avignon, his career took shape when he met the painter François Honnorat, an art broker, who became his patron and his merchant. He attended the Salon of the National Society of Fine Arts, the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon d'Automne and the Salon des Tuileries. He also exhibits in many galleries in France (Bernheim gallery ..) and abroad (Amsterdam, Barcelona, ​​New York ..). Landscape painter, René Seyssaud endeavors to show the landscapes of his region, in particular the Vaucluse, and the local life of its inhabitants.
