Maxime Maufra (1861 – Nantes – 1918) The Village of Lavardin in the Evening, Loir-et-Cher Oil on canvas. 1917. Approx. 54 x 73 cm. Signed and dated lower right. The work is listed under number 268 in the online catalog of Maxime Maufra’s works by Caroline Durand-Ruel Godfroy. In 1907, Maxime Maufra discovered the picturesque village of Lavardin (Loir-et-Cher). Fascinated by the beauty of the place with its striking medieval castle, he produced several paintings over the years. Maufra painted directly in nature in front of his chosen subject in order to capture the liveliness of the landscape firsthand. Maufra adapts his brushwork to the pictorial elements and moods to achieve greater contour and three-dimensional depth.
