RENAULT Fernand Albert (1887-1939). Couple in love. It represents a symbiosis of classical themes, Fauvian technique and impressionistic relationships in the painting of neo-traditionalism of the 1930s. A monumental painting depicting a naked couple under the shade of trees against the backdrop of bridling horses not far from the sea. A couple in love, like Adam and Eve, talk with interest and study each other, as if getting used to each other. They are contrasted by skin color and light. She, under the spotlights of the sun, is white, voluminous and alluring. He is tanned in the shade, strong and brutal. With a look, a gesture, the enthusiasm of youth, he turns to her. The basis of their bed is made up of bright fabrics laid out on the ground. In them, scarlet spots complement the picturesque green foliage. The pastoral relaxation of the couple contrasts with the active background, where they throw a bridle on the horses. Which symbolically anticipates the young man’s luck in love. However, the topic is broader. They demonstrate the metaphysics of the mystery of the meeting and coexistence of the sexes. Authors signature lower right. Canvas, oil. 99?132 cm.
