(BRITISH 1880-1952) DAPPLED LIGHT, THE GLADE Signed lower left, oil on board 24.75cm x 33.75cm (9.75in x 13.25in) Between 1901 and 1952 Dugdale exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, and served as a War Artist in the First and Second World Wars.

JEAN HIPPOLYTE MARCHAND (FRENCH 1883-1940) PAYSAGE DE PARIS Signed lower right, inscribed with artist's name and title to stretcher verso, oil on canvas 53cm x 45cm (21in x 17.75in) From the Estate of Dorothy Bohm Parisian suburban life is evoked in this verdant oil by Jean Hippolyte Marchand. A walker, an agricultural worker and a figure on horseback are painted with post-Impressionist brevity, their white headdresses suggesting we may be glimpsing the cloistered world of a religious order. The trees’ spindly boughs appear to bend in the breeze, their canopies ripening to an autumnal gold. Marchand imbibed the tonal vivacity and stylised naivete of French modernism. Often described as a cubist, it was in fact only his early work that explicitly channelled cubism’s crystalline delineation, and from the mid-1910s his forms assumed a gentler organic quality while retaining an avant-garde sensibility. Marchand attained the distinction of inclusion in Roger Fry’s 1910 Manet and Post Impressionism exhibition at London’s Grafton Galleries. He became acquainted with Clive Bell and henceforth folded into the Bloomsbury circle. A number of his works were acquired by the important collector Samuel Courtauld.

PAUL LUCIEN MAZE (FRENCH 1887-1979) WINDOW SILL STILL LIFE Signed lower right, pastel on buff paper 54cm x 73cm (21.25in x 28.75in) From the Estate of Dorothy Bohm Paul Maze has been referred to as ‘the last Post-Impressionist’.

Maze was encouraged to use pastels by Edouard Vuillard, who said they were best-suited to Maze’s artistic vision.
