Biography
François Charles Cachoud (born in 1866 in Chambéry, Savoy and died in 1943) is a painter known today for his night effects and his chiaroscuro. Its artistic criteria are close to those of the Barbizon School. “The full moon enchants the horizon, it descends slowly on the neighboring hillsides. It is in the village in celebration: we drink and dance. And the trailing shadows of the dancers meet a facade and form capriciously in true lunar fresco. A moonlit evening with a friend, we were walking in the garden at Saint-Alban-de-Montbel. Suddenly we saw our shadows appearing on the wall of the house; a little crazy, we began to dance, watching amused our moving silhouettes; so came the idea of this painting. ”
