Artist
Marcel Ordinaire
Marcel Ordinaire is a Barbizon school artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Art Institute of Chicago.
French artist Marcel Ordinaire painted quiet 19th-century landscapes, oil on canvas, like “Landscape” from 1867—a gentle field road under an open sky. He left no movement label behind, so his style sits just outside the main scenes of his time. Take a closer look at the single poplar in the distance and notice how the muted light feels like a held breath.
