SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Grey light and muted tones distinguish the landscapes of Alfred Casile (1848–1909). He trained at the Marseille art school with Philippe-Auguste Jeanron and later in Paris with Antoine Guillemet, initially working for the Compagnie des docks. His submission of Une Falaise en Normandie to the 1880 Salon accompanied his commitment to painting. During his Paris years, he met Pissarro, Sisley and Monet. Travels took him to Italy and Belgium, where he painted Brussels, Antwerp and Bruges among other places, before settling permanently in Marseille. His works appear in several museums: La Durance in Grenoble, Les Ruines de Fos at the Musée Granet and L’Abbaye de Montmajour, près d’Arles at the Musée Calvet.
