Corsican Church

Corsican Church – Madeleine Defranchi Oil on canvas – 50 × 72 cm – 2017 With Corsican Church, Madeleine Defranchi transports us to the heart of a Mediterranean landscape bathed in light. The building gently stands out in its natural environment, supported by a harmonious palette where the warmth of the earth blends with the subtlety of the skies. The artist's sensitive touch gives the scene a peaceful atmosphere, imbued with reflection and authenticity. Between figuration and poetic interpretation, this work evokes the simple beauty of Corsican heritage and invites serene contemplation. A luminous and evocative canvas, ideal for lovers of Southern landscapes. Madeleine Defranchi has been painting since childhood. After years of exploring drawing, pastels, and then acrylics, she had a decisive encounter with Stéphane Beyu, a painter trained at the Moscow School of Fine Arts. For over ten years, his teaching has profoundly nourished her practice. Today, Madeleine works exclusively in oil, driven by a sensitivity attuned to nature and emotion. Each canvas is for her an invitation to share her unique perspective on the world.
