A French painter born in 1936, Alain Pontecorvo is considered to be among the top figurative artists working in France today.

Alain Pontecorvo’s style as a traditional painter references the 17th Century Dutch Masters, with his work demonstrating a particularly Dutch way of capturing light. His painting speaks of the Italian Masters in his compositional structure and his use of pigments. He displays a captivating balance between romantic and modern realism with precision, emotional subtlety and freedom. The art of Pontecorvo is well-balanced, full of great expression, with a rich veil of mystery that is always found in authentic painting.
