Fernand-Marie-Eugène Le Gout-Gérard 1856-1924.
Concarneau.
Oil on canvas, signed.
18 x 22 in.
Legout Gérard was born in Saint-Lo Normandy, France on the 24th October 1856 and died in Paris on the 14th August 1924.
He began his career as a banker, but around 1890 he discovered Concarneau and moved there in 1903, and in the same year became a full time professional artist.
He was a member of ‘Le group de Concarneau’, a loosely joined network of like-minded friends and painters, most notably Henri Alphonse Barnoin (1882-1935).
Together with Janssaud and Deyrolle they established a vision of old Brittany, its landscape, coastal scenes and customs that captured a way of life that would be destroyed by the conflict and social disruption of the First World War.
