Gustave Loiseau, French, 1865 to 1935, a Post Impressionist oil on board painting depicting a seascape. Housed in an old gilt wood frame with a metal name plate below. Gustave Loiseau was born in Paris in 1865, where he grew up and studied at the Ecole des Arts Decoratifs. When he was 25 he moved to Pont-Aven in Bretagne to work with Gauguin and other members of the Pont Aven School. During Loiseau's time in Pont Aven, he also met and became close with two other post-impressionists, Maxime Maufra and Emile Bernard. The time he spent with these artists led Loiseau to a stronger structure and freer brushstroke in his subsequent work. In addition to Gauguin's style of cloissonism, one can also see the influence of Pissarro and the pointillism of Seurat in Loiseau's technique. His paintings can be found in important collections on both sides of the Atlantic, including the Albright-Knox Art Gallery (Buffalo), Chateau Museum (Dieppe), Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (Kansas City), and Ashmolean Museum (Oxford). The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York) also houses three Loiseau works in the renowned Robert Lehman Collection of Art. One of a kind artwork.
