"The Drôme Provencale"
Jacques Fontan
Knife Oil - 32 Inches x 26 Inches

During a stay in this Provencal Drôme that I love, in April 2005, I had taken pictures. Starting from a few olive trees, I wanted to create a regional landscape... but not in the shades of current paintings, with more credible colors, pastelized, by heat, dryness. On this canvas one can notice, the Pre -Alpes, a hamlet, lavender, olive trees and their compères poppies, ground stony and grassy by place and between two, the stubble after harvest.
