Ernest Ange Duez
French painter (–)
Ernest Ange Duez (also known as Ernest-Ange Duez and Ernest Duez, 8 March – 5 April ) was a French painter of genre scenes, portraits, landscapes and religious subjects.
Although he was an admirer of Édouard Manet and owned paintings by Manet,[1]Claude Monet, Edgar Degas and Berthe Morisot, his palette was more subdued than that of most of the Impressionists, and his technique more controlled.
His style, between that of the conservative Paris Salon and Impressionism, has been called juste milieu, and he has been compared to Alfred Stevens, Giuseppe De Nittis,[2] and James Tissot.[1]

In a visitor to a London gallery remarked upon a "small exhibition of pictures As with many of Duez's works of the late s and s, Sur la Falaise likely depicts the artist's wife and daughter watching a flock of seagulls on the beaches of Villerville, Normandy. After careful observation of his models, surf and sand, the artist effectively contrasts the finely painted details of the figures' costumes with the rougher strokes of paint which make up the jagged rocks upon which they sit.
