Rue Lepic and Maquis, Montmartre, c1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas painting by the renowned French artist Auguste Lepere. This masterpiece, created in the late 19th century, offers a glimpse into the historic Montmartre neighborhood of Paris, specifically the Rue Lepic area. The painting showcases a perspective of an empty, shanty building with a vibrant, colorful facade, nestled amidst the rolling hills of Montmartre. The use of oil on canvas technique adds depth and texture to the image, making the building appear as if it could leap off the canvas and into the viewer's reality. Auguste Lepere's painting is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Montmartre, a neighborhood known for its bohemian spirit and artistic community. The building in the painting, with its worn-out appearance, represents the working-class housing that was common in the area during the 1900s. The title "Maquis" refers to the makeshift dwellings built on the slopes of Montmartre, which were often constructed without proper permits or adherence to building codes. This painting is now part of the collection of the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, one of the city's most prestigious museums. The museum, which is dedicated to the history of Paris, is an institution that preserves and showcases the city's artistic and cultural heritage. The addition of "Rue Lepic and Maquis, Montmartre, c1900" to its collection is a significant contribution to the understanding and appreciation of Parisian history and the artistic legacy of Auguste Lepere. The painting's composition invites the viewer to explore the urban landscape of Montmartre, offering a unique perspective on the city's past. The empty street scene adds to the sense of stillness and tranquility, making it a thought-provoking and visually stunning piece of art. Overall, "Rue Lepic and Maquis, Montmartre, c1900" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history and art of Paris and the 19th century.
