1886 -1943 · Rouen, Seine valley and fawn color
Robert Antoine Pinchon was born in Rouen in 1886 and died in Bois-Guillaume in 1943. Son of the librarian and critic Robert Pinchon, he grew up in a literary environment close to Guy de Maupassant. Very young, he painted the quays and surroundings of Rouen; at nineteen, the Rouen Museum of Fine Arts already dedicated an exhibition to him. His meeting with Albert Lebourg, Camille Pissarro and especially Claude Monet already devoted an exhibition to him. His meeting with Albert Lebourg, Camille Pissarro and especially Claude Monet confirmed his attachment to the observation of atmospheric variations. However, Pinchon did not remain in the impressionist wake alone. In contact with Raoul Dufy, Pierre Dumont and the avant-gardes presented in Rouen, his color became denser, more frank, sometimes tawny. He participated in the founding of the Groupe des Trente in 1907 and then, with Dumont, in the Norman Society of Modern Painting. The water lily pond organizes water, flowers and reflections into a moving chromatic surface. Avenue Saint-Paul and Côte Sainte-Catherine combine Rouen topography and colorful construction. Winter landscape shows that snow and cold skies never suppress the intensity of the palette. Mobilized during the First World War and taken prisoner, Pinchon then resumed sustained activity, taught and exhibited regularly in Normandy as in Paris.

Mobilized during the First World War and taken prisoner, Pinchon then resumed sustained activity, taught and exhibited regularly in Normandy as in Paris. Until his death, he renewed the same territories - Seine, bridges, fields, gardens - through the hours and the seasons. He thus embodies the second generation of the Rouen School, the one which transforms the impressionist heritage through the audacity of color. The "Robert Antoine Pinchon" selection notably compares Le bassin aux nymphéas and L’Avenue Saint-Paul and Côte Sainte-Catherine. His reading favors the story.
Pinchon does not repeat the Norman landscape: he rebuilds it every season, until the water, snow or hill become pure color.
