Description

Marie Fortiadis is a painter from Marseille in the late 19th and first quarter of the 20th centuries.
She was the daughter of Orientalist painter Alexandre Fotiadis.

Marie Fotiadis’ paintings can be found in the Beaux-Arts museums of southern France, in Digne, Marseille, and Cassis. She is cited among the contemporary painters who have enhanced Provence. Her still life with flowers & fruit exhibited at the Musée Gassendi in Digne is a benchmark of the transition from 19th-century classical painting to the Impressionists.

This painting is an oil on canvas, in a generous carved wooden frame.  The Provencal light is immediately recognizable.  A man walks alone on a road in the hills, with a small village in the distance.
