“Our autumns are the most colourful in the world": Marc-Aurèle Fortin. He sees nature as he paints it.
Marc-Aurèle Fortin was always passionate and enthusiastic about painting nature. In the book titled “Marc-Aurèle Fortin” from the Signatures collection, authored by Jacques de Rousan and published by Marcel Broquet, Fortin's works from the 1920s and 1930s are described as dominated by yellows, reds, and browns. The greens in his paintings shine in the ambient light, ranging from soft green to dark green. This quote aptly describes Fortin's artistic style throughout his career.
