Originally from Le Havre, this Cauchois painter, knows how to delight art lovers of beaches and shores that are always invigorating, of bright and expressive countryside in an invigorating matter of nature. An authentic land painter, well rooted in the heart of the elements, Jean Levasseur delivers a fascinating show of motifs where his warm colours exult under a virile touch, with effects that are in turn spectacular or limpid, reflections of an exhilarating vision transmitted in power and charm. - André RUELLAN, art critic
