Summary

Description
English: Auguste Prévot-Valéri (1857-1930), Fuyant l'orage (Fleeing the Storm), exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1906, reproduced in color in Le Petit journal, Supplément du dimanche, 9 September 1906, p. 288.

Text on p. 282: "Sous le ciel bas, chargé de lourds nuées d'orage, le berger presse son troupeau vers l'étable... L'oeuvre est saisissante, empreinte à la fois de réalisme et de poésie; elle eut, au dernier Salon de la Société des Artistes français, le plus vif succès.

"La superbe reproduction que nous en donnons à nos lecteurs leur montrera combien ce succès fut justifié.

"Les tableaux de M. Prévôt-Valéri sont tout particulièrement appréciés des amateurs, car ils traduisent toujours des effets harmonieux et des sentiments profonds. L'auteur est un peintre animalier de premier ordre. Il s'est spécialisé dans l'étude des moutons. Médaillé aux expositions universelles de Paris et de Barcelone, il est hors concours au Salon, et il a de nombreux tableaux dans les musées de Nice, Toulon, Nancy, Saint-Quentin, Clermont, Calais, ainsi qu'au Petit Palais, à Paris.

"La belle oeuvre que nous reproduisons aujourd'hui lui valut d'être classé premier pour le prix Rosa Bonheur, et il eût remporté cette haute récompense, si la fondatrice n'avait souhaité que le prix ne fût décerné cette année à un peintre étranger. Mais M. Prévôt-Valéri aura eu du moins la joie de voir son oeuvre popularisée par le Supplément illustré en couleurs du Petit Journal.

"Et cette joie lui était bien due."
