EDITORS COMMENTS
Villefranche, circa 1931 This exquisite oil painting captures the enchanting beauty of Villefranche-sur-Mer, a picturesque coastal town located on the French Riviera. Painted circa 1931, the artwork masterfully portrays the unique character of this charming Mediterranean village. The vibrant hues of the houses, dotted around the rocky outcrops, add a splash of color against the backdrop of the clear blue waters and sun-kissed sky. The houses, with their varying heights, seem to cling to the rugged cliffs, creating a sense of harmony between the built environment and the natural landscape. The artist, Leslie Hunter, expertly uses the medium of oil to bring the scene to life, capturing the play of light and shadow on the buildings and the water. This painting is a testament to the artistic prowess of Leslie Hunter, who was part of the influential group of artists known as the Scottish Colourists. Hunter's work, along with that of his contemporaries, was characterized by its bold use of color and its focus on capturing the essence of the scene, rather than replicating it in exacting detail. Permission for the reproduction of this artwork has been granted by Alex Reid Lefevre, who holds the copyright on behalf of the Mary Evans Picture Library. The painting is part of the March of the Women Collection, which showcases a diverse range of artworks, spanning various genres and time periods. This painting is a must-have for any art lover, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring beauty of the French Riviera.
