Oil on canvas painting, featuring landscape scene. Signed and attr. Louis Vivin (French, 1861-1936) on lower right corner. 15.75 x 19.5 in. (40.0 x 49.5 cm) lower section is indented, and lower left side has chipped paint, back of the canvas has signs of water damage and oil based material is bleeding through from the front (green in color). The subjects of Vivin's paintings were still life, hunting subjects, and the city of Paris. Vivin was a contemporary of Henri Rousseau, Camille Bombois, Andre Bauchant, and Séraphine Louis, known collectively as the "Sacred Heart Painters" and as masters of French na?ve painting. Vivin's works are known to have a sad and dismal theme to them. He was also known for painting from his memory. Louis Vivin was influenced by the work and details of Jean-Louis-Ernes Meissonier’s paintings. Louis Vivin’s first one-man exhibition was placed at the Galerie des Quatre Chemins, and it was organized by Uhde in 1927. His later work was considered to become less dependent of the melancholy mood, and it focused more on blocks of color and form. PROVENANCE: Southern Ontario estate
