In Automne dans les Marais aux Environs d'Asnières, Alexandre Louis Jacob depicts the quiet melancholy of the autumn marshes with a masterful balance of atmosphere and structure. The delicate palette and subtle modulation of light capture the fleeting beauty of the season. A refined example of early 20th-century French landscape painting, this work portrays a poetic representation of rural France and the contemplative moods of nature.
Alexandre Jacob's tranquil and subtle landscapes show a masterful evocation of light, atmosphere and colour, transporting the viewer into the peaceful countryside of rural France.
He gained an understanding and love for nature through studied inspection, transferring his unique observations skilfully onto canvas.
Making his name in the French Salons of the 1920s and 30s, his immense talent was immediately recognised by his peers and then by the establishment.
