充滿法國鄉土氣息感人的畫 - Émile Friant (1863– 1932)

Les amoureux 情侶

看到法國畫家Emile Friant的這些畫，覺得很親切，雖然他畫的人物相隔現在一百年餘，但好像也是現在的事，這樣的情景在巴黎是看不到的， 要到法國鄉下，法國鄉下的農民非常可愛，樸實，勤勞，以食為天

法國不久前也是以農業為主的國家， 像所有的農業國家一樣，生活氣息非常濃厚， 難怪法國人說和中國有那麽些相同之處，人可以依山靠水，有田有地， 有情有愛，日子應該是很溫馨的，可是人又像所有的作物一樣， 生死的宿命難以逃避，

他的畫充滿法國鄉間生活氣息，母女深情，小夥子打架鬧著玩，每日飯桌時間是法國人一天很重要的時間，飯菜量也挺大的， 像上次去法國鄉下餐館給的飯菜量巨大又便宜， 朋友開玩笑說，這是農民工人餐，吃完好幹活的。 那幅農民餐桌上政治討論的畫，不用說他們已經麵紅耳赤了，畫中一人頭還偏一邊去，不想說話的樣子，好率真樸實。畫家畫室一畫，感受到畫家那孤獨脆弱強大的靈魂

Toussaint節是每年的11月1日，就像中國的清明節，天氣變寒，人們開始穿著大衣結伴去墓地掃墓，La douleur是最撕心裂肺的畫， 可又是人生中每個人不可避免的一幕；

Emile Briant出生在一個普通家庭，父親修鎖的，母親是裁縫， 但畫家幼時深得一無子的化學家夫婦的愛護和培養，他的畫多為Nancy 藝術館收藏。

The Frugal Repast



Émile Friant (1863, Dieuze, Moselle – 1932) was a French artist. Friant was born in the commune of Dieuze, however he was later forced to flee to Nancy. Throughout his lifetime, his paintings were featured at the Salon. Friant unexpectedly died in Paris in 1932

 

Early life

Friant was born in the commune of Dieuze in 1863. His father was a locksmith, and his mother a dressmaker. Madame Parisot, the wife of a chemist, would hire Friant's wife to design custom pieces of clothing. The Parisots treated Friant maternally as they were without children

Due to the Franco-Prussian War, Dieuze was no longer under French control

Parisot had been intensely distressed by this and intended to flee for Nancy, but died before being able to do so. In 1871, Madame Parisot fled with Friant to Nancy, and Friant's biological family followed later.

Friant was to learn Latin at the lycée as Madame Parisot intended for him to become a chemist. Friends of Friant's father suggested sending him to a municipal school of art. Because of his poor work at the lycée, Friant asked for permission to leave and focus on his art. His father agreed, and Friant was placed under a private tutor that would arrange work so that it left time for painting. Under the guidance of Louis Devilly, director of a school in Nancy and a proponent of realism, Friant painted still life and landscapes.

Friant painted Le petit Friant at the age of 15. It was exhibited in Nancy, and he became a "local celebrity" as a result. The municipal council allowed him to travel to Paris a year later. There he studied under Alexandre Cabanel, who directed him to do oil sketches of historical works. Friant, now disenchanted by the academic style and Atelier Method of painting, left for Nancy

The Salon

In 1882, Aime Morot, a friend of Friant, encouraged him to debut two of his works at the Salon: The Prodigal Son and Studio Interior. In 1883, Friant took second place in the Prix de Rome and presented at the Salon. At his next two Salon presentations, over the following two years, he won third-class and second-class honors respectively. Friant formed a lasting friendship with Ernest and Benoit Coquelin. With the grant he received from the Salon of 1886, he traveled to and studied in the Netherlands. His painting of the Coquelins' mother reflects the effects of that journey.

Later life

In 1923, Friant was appointed a professor of painting at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He was also promoted to the position of commander in the Legion of Honor. Lastly, Friant was made a member of the Institut de France. In 1932, Friant fell to a sudden death in Paris.
