WILLIAM SAMUEL HORTON (AMERICAN 1865-1936): A PASTEL DRAWING ON PAPER DEPICTING A COUNTRYSIDE SCENE61cm x 47cmWilliam Samuel Horton is considered by critics to be one of the leading members of American Impressionism, best-known for his Monetesque sunsets and sunrises, Swiss Alpine landscapes, New York skylines and Norwegian fjord scenes. W.S. Horton grew up in a wealthy family and left home in 1883 to study at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Students League of New York. In 1892, Horton married the New York debutante Carlotta Lorrie Gray and in 1893 they moved to Holland, later settling in Paris where Horton joined the Académie Julian art school. It was Paris that perhaps had the greatest influence on the artist’s stylistic development, as whilst studying in the French capital he befriended and worked closely alongside some of the leading Impressionist artists including Whistler, Pissarro, Degas and Monet. In 1918 Horton moved to England, continuing to travel often to Europe, painting and sketching scenes in Switzerland, France and Italy. During his travels the artist developed his own Impressionist style, and like Monet focussed on the effects of light on colour, atmosphere, form, shadow and shapes. Like the founding Impressionist, Horton painted the same motif or scene at different times of the day, studying the effect of the light. Examples include his 1934 dramatic sunsets and sunrises over the coastal fjords, planes and mountains of Norway, his recognisable cityscapes of the New York skyline, most notably of the Ritz and Heckscher towers (1924-1930) and his snowy landscapes of the Swiss Alps. In 1935 the artist travelled to Asia (China, Singapore, India and Indonesia), continuing to paint and sketch, including on board ships. W.S. Horton and his wife were relatively wealthy during their lifetime, selling few of his artworks. When Horton died in 1936 he left over 1000 oils, pastels and drawings to their son William Gray, who organised a retrospective exhibition of his father’s work at the Galerie Charpentier, Paris in 1939, which included an appreciation text by the famous art critic Louis Vauxcelles. Horton’s works can be found in the permanent collections of the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, the Musée National d'Art Moderne, Paris and the National Museum, Stockholm.

During his travels the artist developed his own Impressionist style, and like Monet focussed on the effects of light on colour, atmosphere, form, shadow and shapes. Like the founding Impressionist, Horton painted the same motif or scene at different times of the day, studying the effect of the light. Examples include his 1934 dramatic sunsets and sunrises over the coastal fjords, planes and mountains of Norway, his recognisable cityscapes of the New York skyline, most notably of the Ritz and Heckscher towers (1924-1930) and his snowy landscapes of the Swiss Alps. In 1935 the artist travelled to Asia (China, Singapore, India and Indonesia), continuing to paint and sketch, including on board ships. W.S. Horton and his wife were relatively wealthy during their lifetime, selling few of his artworks. When Horton died in 1936 he left over 1000 oils, pastels and drawings to their son William Gray, who organised a retrospective exhibition of his father’s work at the Galerie Charpentier, Paris in 1939, which included an appreciation text by the famous art critic Louis Vauxcelles. Horton’s works can be found in the permanent collections of the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, the Musée National d'Art Moderne, Paris and the National Museum, Stockholm.

Eugene Louis Boudin (France, 1824 - 1898)"Trouville, Scene de Plage"Oil on Board. Signed lower right. Inscribed 'Trouville 74' lower left. This painting has never before been offered for auction.Provenance:Estate of Francis Luis Mora (American, 1874 - 1940); by descentLiterature:R. Schmit, Eugene Boudin, Paris, 1973, vol. I, p. 335, no. 939 (illustrated).We want to personally thank Ms Emma Jackson at the Hirsch Library at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston for her assistance confirming this listing.Board Size: 6.5 x 14 1/8 in. (16.7 x 35.5 cm)Overall Framed Size: 11.5 x 19 in.Trouville, situated at the mouth of the river Touques in Normandy, was a small village that became a fashionable and elegant summer retreat for both Parisians and English visitors alike during the 1820s. From the 1860s through the 1890s, Boudin traveled to Trouville every year, painting the beach scenes for which he is best known.Boudin often dedicated half of his canvases to an expansive, cloud-filled sky. As Gustave Courbet, exclaimed, ''My God, you are a seraph, Boudin! You are the only one of us who really knows the sky''Boudin often worked on location, believing that "Everything that is painted on the spot has always a strength, a power, a vividness of touch that one doesn't find again in one's studio" (quoted in Yann Le Pichon, The Real World of the Impressionists, New York, 1983, p. 79). This approach to painting was, at the time, revolutionary. Claude Monet responded to Boudin's methodology and was soon joining the artist on the beaches of Trouville. After meeting Boudin in Le Havre in the late 1850s, Monet wrote "My eyes were really opened and I finally understood Nature. I learned at the same time to love it" (Quoted in Maria Costantino, The Impressionists, Secaucus, 1993, p. 39). Boudin's lessons in spontaneity inspired Monet and many artists of the younger generation to continue painting, not only sketching, en plein air and to pursue their interest in painting "impressions" of nature, using looser brush strokes and luminous tonalities. Boudin has long been considered among the most influential figures to the Impressionists.

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’s father was a wealthy tea merchant, and the Normandy-based family acquired many Impressionist artworks, and were friends with Monet, Renoir and Pissarro. Maze was encouraged to use pastels by Edouard Vuillard, who said they were best-suited to Maze’s artistic vision. Dorothy Bohm was a British photographer based in London, known for her portraiture, street photography, early adoption of colour, and photography of London and Paris. She is considered one of the doyennes of British photography.Dorothy Bohm was born in 1924 in Koenigsberg, East Prussia and moved to England in 1939. By the age of 21, she was running her own very successful portrait studio in central Manchester, known as Studio Alexander. In the mid-1950s, she lived for a while both in Paris and New York before settling definitively in northwest London. Her first solo exhibition, People at Peace, took place at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London in 1969, and 1970 saw the publication of her first book, A World Observed. Numerous more books and exhibitions would follow. In 1971 she was closely involved in the founding of The Photographers’ Gallery, and served as its Associate Director for the next fifteen years. By the 1990s Dorothy was firmly established as one of the doyennes of British photography, with work in numerous public and private collections, including Tate, the Victoria & Albert Museum, Guildhall Art Gallery and the Musée Carnavalet, Paris.

* KEN HOWARD OBE RA RBA NEAC (BRITISH 1932 - 2022) FROM POKHARA, NEPAL watercolour on paper, signed, titled and dated '79mounted, framed and under glassimage size 19cm x 28cm, overall size 38cm x 46cm Note: Ken Howard paintings are about three things. It is about revelation, communication and celebration. By revelation he means giving people a way of seeing, revealing the world around them in a way they have never seen before, opening their eyes. By communication he means revealing the world with a personal language, speaking directly in an instantly recognisable style. He wants it to celebrate life whether it be human dignity expressed by Velasquez or Cezanne, or the wonders of nature expressed by Corot or Monet. For Ken his main inspiration was light and it is through light that he wanted to celebrate his world.
