Charles Cottet, The Sea

The sea, Charles Cottet 1863/1925.

Oil on panel signed lower right.

This very modern landscape painted around 1900 bears on the back the label of the Petit Palais Museum in Geneva where it was exhibited during the exhibition “From Renoir to Picasso”.

This is a rare work for the artist because it is still imbued with the clear Impressionist palette that the artist gave up a few years later.

Charles Cottet studied painting in the studio of Émile Maillard (1846-1926), then at the Académie Julian in Paris.In June 1899, he joined the Société Nouvelle de Peintres et de Sculpteurs, with a first group exhibition at the Galerie Georges Petit in Paris in March 1900]. In the 1900s, together with Lucien Simon, Edmond Aman-Jean, Edmond Aman-Jean, André Dauchez, George Desvallières and Maurice Denis, he was part of a group of young painters nicknamed “the Black Band” by art critics because they rejected the clear canvases of the Impressionists. Most of these artists teach at the Académie de la Palette in Paris.
