Impressionism: a historical reconstruction

Victor Vignon

(1847-1909)

topographical overview

of the titles of his pictures

 

Introduction:
On this page you will find a topographical overview of the titles of works made by Victor Vignon. Most works he made in Auvers, Jouy and Champagne along the Oise. I start with these works. Then I render works made in the surroundings of Meulan, south-west of Pontoise, where Vignon died in 1909. Then works made in the surroundings of Paris. Then works made in the region of Aisne where Vignon was born. Then works made along the Normandy coast and in Britanny. At last I render more uncertain locations.
In the notifications it is indicated when these works were exhibited or sold at (historical) auctions; for more info see the account. When known, additional info is added and also the sources (see for explanation at the bottom of the main page about Vignon). I also render information on where Vignon has painted from other sources (R9;R273;R272,p7;iR41). See also the thematical overview. For the pictures see 5IE-1880, 6IE-1881, 7IE-1882, 8IE-1886, solo exhibitions and auction sales.

 

Pontoise:
Vignon did not paint much in Pontoise, where Camille Pissarro lived from 1866-68 and 1872-82 (R116II,p97-100). Pontoise lies about 6km south of Auvers-sur-Oise:

Le Valhermeil:
Le Valhermeil lies just north of Pontoise and south of Auvers-sur-Oise. It is also written as: Val-Hermé / Val-Hermay / Val Hermoy. He painted here several times in the 1880s. He lived here in 1880.

Auvers-sur-Oise:
Vignon made many pictures in Auvers-sur-Oise and surroundings, which lies about 30km north-west of Paris. He painted here in many times from 1881-87 and according to other sources also in  1877+88+89 (R9;R273;R272,p7;iR41).

Hamlets near Auvers-sur-Oise:
Vignon painted several hamlets near Auvers-sur-Oise, that are now part of Auvers-sur-Oise.

Carrières:
There is a Chemin des Carrières aux Coulon in Auvers.

Butry:
Butry-sur-Oise lies just north-east of Auvers.

Valmondois:
Valmondois lies just north-west of Butry. Paul Alexis (‘Trublot’) visited him here in a rented farm in 1887 (aR13).

HD1913/12/17-86, Le village de Nesle-la-Vallée, près de Valmondois  (iR40)

Nesles-la-Vallée:
Nesles-la-Vallée lies just north-west of Valmondois. It is also written as Nesles / Nesle-la-Vallée / Nesles (-la-Vallée). He probably painted her from 1886-89 (R9;R273;R272,p7;iR41).

Fontenelles:
There now are Les Gîtes de Fontenelles in Nesles-la-Vallée. It is close to the river Sausseron which flows through Nesles-la-Vallée and Valmondois into the Oise. Saussiron is maybe a writing error. Fontenelles is also (wrongly) written as Fontenelle / Fontenille:

Hamlets near Nesles-la-Vallée:
Vignon painted several hamlets near Nesles-la-Vallée, that are now part of this municipality.

Chenival:
Also written as Cheneval and Chenivat. There now is a Rue de Chenival and a Chemin du Chenival. Other sources mention he painted here in 1890 (R9;R273;R272,p7;iR41).

Labbeville lies just west of Nesles-la-Vallée. Maybe Lubbeville was a writing error.

Jouy-le-Comte:
Vignon very often painted in Jouy-le-Comte and surroundings. Vignon lived here anyway in 1886 and 1887, this last year he lived at the Morcourt mill in Jouy-le-Comte (R272,p7). There now is a Rue de moulin. Jouy-le-Comte lies about 8km north of Auvers-sur-Oise. One work is dated 1865, when Vignon was 18 years old, it would be more logical if it was dated 1885; can it be a reading error? Most works are dated between 1884-87 (R9;R273;R272,p7;iR41).

Champagne lies opposite L’Isle Adam, where Vignon lived late 1870s / early 1880s (aR20=iR317). But there are no works known made in L’Isle-Adam, neither works made in the surroundings.
