His great-grandson told us that this painting dates back to 1917, when it was exhibited at the famous Galerie Petit in Paris. During WW1, Dauchez had sheltered his boat, the Rose des Vents, a 22 m tuna fishing boat, in La Trinité. By the end of the war, with no crew to speak of, he was only able to make short trips in the Gulf and around the Quiberon peninsula. He produced several paintings in Kerné.
The light in André Dauchez's landscapes unfolds with subtle delicacy. He captures the shifting nuances of Breton skies and infuses his scenes with a serene, timeless atmosphere.
