Achille Oudinot
( 1820-1891)
"Dunes of Dunkirk"
24 x 36 (Dated 1864)
Achille Oudinot was Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot's favorite student. A talented painter, Oudinot often painted in tandem with Corot on the same canvas. Perhaps the master had a hand in this one! Oudinot went on to pursue an illustrious career as an inventive designer, architect and painter; a renaissance man about France. This is a magnificent luminous and rare painting by the artist.
