Painted in 1896, Maximilien Luce's 'Usines près de Charleroi' captures an industrial landscape with Neo-Impressionist techniques. The artwork uses a muted palette and Pointillist style to depict factories and smokestacks near Charleroi, Belgium.
Maximilien Luce, a French Neo-Impressionist, painted 'Usines près de Charleroi' in 1896. This oil on canvas depicts an industrial scene near Charleroi, Belgium, a region known for its coal mining and steel production. Luce was associated with the Post-Impressionist group, and his work often reflected his anarchist political beliefs. He found beauty and artistic merit in the modern industrial world, a theme less common among his contemporaries. The painting shows a cluster of factory buildings and smokestacks under a sky tinged with the colours of dawn or dusk. The composition is dominated by the vertical lines of the chimneys, softened by the plumes of smoke rising from them. Luce employed a Pointillist technique, using small, distinct dots of colour to create a shimmering effect. The colour palette is muted, with greys, blues, and browns punctuated by touches of orange and pink in the sky and smoke. The overall impression is one of a working industrial landscape, rendered with a sensitivity to light and atmosphere.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
