Jean-Francis Auburtin (1866-1930) is part of the long procession of painters on the motif: Courbet, Boudin, Jongkind, Monet...
As a true "portraitist of nature," he discerns the intimate character of the place in each landscape. During his walks, he tracks down the motif, captures it in his notebooks, and thus amasses a rich repertoire of pictorial forms. His work is almost entirely immersed in the marine world. For Auburtin, the landscape is also sometimes the scene of a sort of golden age, in which nymphs, sirens, and fauns commune with an untouched and pure nature.
