St. Jean Le Cap Ferrat

Urbain Huchet (1930 – 2014, French) “St. Jean Le Cap Ferrat” - Original watercolor on paper features colorful fishing boats docked and sailboats at sea amid lavendar rolling hills and orange topped buildings found in the South of France. The work of art is signed in the lower right and framed in wood with matting and wood fillet. The image is 5.5 x 8.5 inches, and the overall measurements are 13.75 x 16.5 inches. (Huchet has created many artistic variations of boats and harbors, a recurring favorite motif of his.)

Emmanuel Urbain Huchet was an accomplished lithographer in addition to his original watercolors and oils on canvas. He traveled extensively and painted the local scenery, but his primary focus was on the landscape of Brittany. Paris is where his largest number of works were produced. At least 300 editions of lithographs have been printed of his works, all produced by the artist himself in different workshops in Paris and Cannes.
