Charles Perron French, 1893-1958

Description

Scenes of windows, shutters, and flower-filled façades became a recurring motif in Perron’s work and reflect his enduring fascination with the everyday character of provincial France. These subjects allowed him to explore colour harmony and the interplay between architecture and nature on an intimate scale. Small in format yet rich in painterly detail, works such as Fenêtre aux Géraniums exemplify the decorative charm and accessibility that have made Perron’s paintings enduringly popular with collectors.
