Oil on Canvas
Pierre de Clausade’s formal education in architecture is evident throughout the body of work he produced until his death in 1976. After attending the Beaux-Arts Academy in Paris, he began endless experiments in an effort to develop an entirely personal method of expression. His aim was to develop a style that was unique, but with which he was comfortable.
Very few artists have the desire to be different and to create something truly unique, however, throughout Pierre de Clausade’s entire career, he strived to find his own artistic identity and set himself aside from his contemporaries.
He found his niche with his great cloud masses and tranquil landscapes, transporting the viewer into a world of solitude and peaceful beauty.
His landscapes delighted art connoisseurs and he found widespread commercial and academic success. Widely decorated by the French Salons, his peers and the establishment recognised Clausade’s achievements and talent, culminating in the award of the Medaille d’Argent by the Jury of the Paris Salon in 1953.
His fame soon spread abroad and the Boston and Minneapolis Museums of Fine Art acquired examples of his work.
