Šarl Kotet's story

Rani život i obrazovanje

Šarl Kotet, čuveni francuski slikar, rođen je 12. jula 1863. godine u Le Puj-en-Velaju, dok je preminuo 20. septembra 1925. godine u Parizu. Svoje umetničko obrazovanje sticao je na prestižnoj École des Beaux-Arts pod mentorstvom Puvisa de Šavana i Rola, a pohađao je i Académie Julian, gde je postao deo umetničke grupe Les Nabis.

Umetnički stil i uticaji

Kotetov umetnički stil prepoznatljiv je po mračnim, evokativnim slikama ruralne Bretanje i morskim pejzažima. On je predvodio školu slikara poznatu kao Bande Noire ili grupa "Nubijaca", čiji je rad bio pod snažnim uticajem realizma i tamnih tonova Kurbe. Njegovo delo se takođe povezuje sa slikovitim primorskim simbolizmom škole Pont-Aven.
