VERY LARGE TABLE "ALLEE EN FÔRET" by Roger CHAPLIN-MIDY (1904-1992) Oil on canvas signed and dated 44 lower right. 73 x 93 cm Roger Chapelain-Midy studied at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris, then continued his artistic training in the painting academies of the Montparnasse district. He exhibited in 1927 at the Salon d'automne and from 1929 at the Salon des indépendants and the Salon des Tuileries. Armand Drouant in 1930 organizes his first exhibition in his gallery rue de Rennes in Paris5. Fascinated by the Renaissance, Poussin's painting and that of the 17th century, he defended a classical tradition, made of measure, in an era that saw the great upheavals of modern painting. He creates still lifes and landscapes. He travels a lot, in Europe as well as in North and South America. He creates mural decorations for the town hall of the 4th arrondissement of Paris, the foyer of the Chaillot National Theatre, the Agronomic Institute of Paris, as well as decorations for ocean liners, including France. Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, then President of the French Republic, commissioned him to paint a Portrait of General de Gaulle for the Elysée Palace in Paris.
