Collection: Claude Langevin

Claude Langevin was born in Montreal in 1942. At 21, he abandoned medical studies to devote himself entirely to painting. He then traveled throughout Quebec and confirmed his attraction to landscapes. His stay in Charlevoix would be particularly revealing for him.

Nature and its diversity are his inexhaustible sources of inspiration. A mountain lover, he tirelessly paints the Laurentians. He also remains loyal to the Charlevoix region, where he returns very often to set up his easel.

This artist, in the tradition of the Group of Seven painters, whom he greatly admires, does not hesitate to set up his easel outside, regardless of the weather conditions, to accurately capture the light and the particularity of a site. And if his paintings have a hint of nostalgia, it is because Claude Langevin sees himself as a witness to an era and the guardian of Quebec's picturesque heritage.

Now exhibited in galleries across the country, his paintings are highly valued by collectors who recognize his mastery of light and the maturity of an established painter. His works are also present in numerous public and, of course, private collections.
