A bouquet, dated 1876, bold and modern by Ludovic Piette<\/h3>\n

A multicolored bouquet stands out against a wallpaper print. The blue Nevers earthenware vase with its floral design is placed on an entablature, itself covered with a chamarr\u00e9 carpet. The painter’s bold, talented use of these different motifs and explosive, contrasting colors bring vibrancy and life to the canvas. This bouquet, dated 1876, is bold and modern. <\/p>\n

Ludovic Piette, an impressionist painter<\/h3>\n

A fellow pupil of Edouard Manet, his palette was initially rather dark, but his meeting with his friend Pissaro led him to paint from the motif and to proscribe black. He exhibited with the Impressionists in 1877.
\nLudovic Piette had long possessed some of the qualities that made this group of artists famous, notably the freshness of color in his palette. <\/p>\n

Biography<\/span><\/h4>\n
\n

Ludovic Piette, a native of the Pays de la Loire region, is the descendant of wealthy landowners from Melleray-la-Vall\u00e9e (Mayenne).<\/p>\n

From an early age, Ludovic Piette was closely involved in artistic circles. He frequented the studios of Thomas Couture and Isidore Pils, before meeting \u00c9douard Manet at the Acad\u00e9mie Suisse in Paris. He also frequented Antoine Chintreuil, to name but a few painters. <\/p>\n

By 1857, he was exhibiting and gaining recognition. Thanks to his personal fortune, he had a studio in Paris, in the Notre-Dame-de-Lorette district, before his fortunes took a turn for the worse. <\/p>\n

Piette specialized in landscapes. He was Camille Pissarro’s closest friend, and in the autumn of 1870, during the war with the Prussians, he welcomed him to his farm in Montfoucault.
\nIn 1874, Pissarro painted the countryside of northern Mayenne during the winter, and his stays and works on this subject continued to multiply until 1877. <\/p>\n

Pissarro appreciated Piette for his humor, cheerfulness and generosity. Piette kept some of his friend’s works until his death. <\/p>\n

Orders and decorations<\/p>\n

His work also includes a number of prestigious commissions, one of which, The Appearance of the Witches in Macbeth, was acquired by the King of Prussia and now hangs in the Sans Souci Palace in Potsdam.
\nHe also composed a floral decoration for the Empress’s apartments at the request of Napoleon III”, according to Ralph Shikes and Paula Harper.<\/p>\n

In 1862, for health reasons, he returned to settle permanently at the Montfoucault farm in Melleray-la-Vall\u00e9e after twelve years of Parisian life and success.<\/p>\n
