Signed, oil on canvas(51cm x 61cm (20in x 24in))Footnote: Note: ‘Everyone must choose his own way, and mine will be the way of colour’ were the words of artist George Leslie Hunter, reflecting upon his own unique practice.His landscapes, such as Street Scene, Largo offer us a fascinating insight into the Scottish Colourist’s French influences by contemporary artists such as Monet and Cezanne. The warming colours of the buildings in Street Scene, Largo juxtaposed against the cooler tones of the sky are reminiscent of Cezanne’s new colour theory, in which he used the natural properties of warm and cool colours to advance and recede and create a sense of depth. Diverse and experimental, Hunter was always looking outwards and learning from his contemporaries; resulting in an impressive oeuvre which teaches us not just about Scottish life at the beginning of the twentieth century, but also of the intellectual and cultural interchange of artists across Europe.

Nagdi continued his training in Russia and Italy, eventually graduating from the Academy of Venice in 1967. A prodigious pioneer in Egyptian art history, In the 1960s, Nagdi exhibited in Europe alongside the Western masters Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dal. His works were soon after acquired by leading institutions around the world. An active member of Cairo's art community and of the Liberal Artists' group headed by Taha Hussein, Nagdi was an extraordinary painter and who equally excelled as a film director and music composer. A multi-disciplinary artist, Nagdi worked with sculpture, oil, watercolour and mosaics. Inspired by the diverse cultures that he encountered in rural Egypt, he fused in his works the Pharaonic and Islamic iconography with Cairo's urban culture idioms and Western aesthetics.

Their mutual friend, the painter Claude Monet arranged for a meeting between the two in November of that year which ended abruptly due to Cézanne's oft-noted erratic behaviour. Nevertheless, Geffroy continued to write favourably of Cézanne. As an expression of gratitude Cezanne painted Geffroy's portrait, which is now on permanent display in the Musee d'Orsay in Paris.
