Guérin was an admirer of the Impressionists Monet and Renoir, but it was the Post-Impressionist Cézanne whose work most captured his admiration. His paintings are distinguished by the vibrant use of color and brush technique described as frisky. Guérin is often characterized as a ‘peintre littéraire’ which refers to the influence of the work of contemporary French writers and poets on his paintings. This signed painting exhibits all of the above qualities, bold in color and brush strokes, but poetic in the nature of the subjects. less
