Jean-Pierre Dubord is a contemporary French post-Impressionist landscape painter, working in the traditions of the late-nineteenth-century French school and best known for his depictions of Rouen, the Seine, the Normandy coast, and the broader visual world of his native region.
Jean-Pierre Dubord (born 1949, Rouen, France) is a contemporary French painter working in the post-Impressionist tradition. Raised in Rouen and the surrounding Normandy countryside, he began painting in 1967, completed a two-year course in art history and decorative arts at the École du Louvre in Paris, and held his first solo exhibition of some thirty paintings in his native Rouen in 1970, where the show drew strong critical reception.
His mature painting concentrates on the visual world of Normandy and the Seine, Rouen's quays, bridges, and cathedral; the Norman countryside; the beaches of Deauville and Houlgate; the cliffs at Caux and Étretat; the working life of the Seine, alongside views of Paris and the broader French landscape. He has held an annual exhibition in Rouen and has shown in Bordeaux, Le Havre, La Rochelle, Paris, and internationally in Osaka and Quebec.
