Jules Noël (1810-1885) Boats At Quay In The Port Of Quimper.

Jules Noël (1810-1885) Boats at quay in the port of Quimper. This is a view of the Odet with the Saint-Corentin cathedral in the background. We find there the themes dear to Christmas. His paintings represent storms, boats (often sailboats), shipwrecks, wild coasts… This in a romantic atmosphere, with an importance given to the sky with often the presence of the French flag. In the classical tradition, the work of Jules Noël is pure and is the result of great observation. His compositions are balanced, with an important vanishing point and a whole that holds up. Towards the end of his life, the sea was still very important, but he associated it with urban life. A large number of national museums preserve works by Jules Noël, in particular the Louvre Museum, the National Maritime Museum in London, the Palace of Versailles Museum, the Brest Museum, Marseilles, Briançon, Dieppe, Rennes, Dijon, Angers, Castres, Chantilly, Chartres, Chaumont, La Rochelle, Mulhouse, Nancy, Nantes, Reims, Tours...
