Impressionism, a historical reconstruction:
Emilien Mulot-Durivage
(1838-1920)
Pictures
A thematical overview
Introduction:
On this page you will find an overview of the paintings that Émilien Mulot-Durivage has made. I render the pictures and titles of pictures in a sort of thematical way. Partly this is topographical and partly chronological. I also try to render suggestions of what works he might have exhibited with the Impressionists in 1874 (=1IE-1874), at the Salon (=S), at its successor the Salon de la Société des Artistes Français (=SdAF) and at other exhibitions, but this is hardly possible. See link for my account. I also will render the titles of his works I found (on auction sites) of which I have no picture. See for the sources at the bottom of the main page on Mulot-Durivage. See link for explanation of the subscriptions. Note: If you double click on the first picture (of a group of pictures) and then click on full screen, you can create a small slideshow. Enjoy!
La Manche region + Granville + Bords de l’Ouve + Cotentin:
1838/03/09 Émilien Mulot-Durivage was born in Granville, on the Normandy coast in the Mont Saint-Michel bay in the Manche region (iR4;R3;aR1;iR1;iR69;R2;aR2;iR66;R87;R88). Later in his life Mulot-Durivage retired at Saint-Sauveur-le-Vicomte, on the west coast of the Cherbourg Peninsula. This is about 90km north of his birthplace Granville (iR9) and nearby the valley of the Ouve (aR1;iR4;aR2). 1920/09/11 Mulot-Durivage died in Saint-Saveur-le-Vicomte (iR4;aR1;iR66). Cotentin lies about 14km north of Saint-Saveur-le-Vicomte (iR9).
