LUCIEN PISSARRO (1863-1944) 'A Garden at Bormes' monogrammed and dated '26 lower left, oil on canvas, 46cm x 55cm Provenance: A gift from the Artist, with inscription verso "Tommy & Christine from Lucien & Esther Pissarro". Pissarro was born on 20 February 1863 in Paris. He was the oldest of seven children; the son of Impressionist painter Camille Pissarro and his wife Julie (née Vellay). He studied with his father and—like his siblings Georges and Félix—he spent his formative years surrounded by his father's fellow artists such as Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir who frequented the Pissarro home. He was influenced by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac.In 1886, he exhibited at the last of the Impressionist exhibitions. From 1886 to 1894 he exhibited with the Salon des Independents.He first visited Britain in 1870–71 during the Franco-Prussian War. He returned in 1883–84, and in 1890 settled permanently in London. On 10 August 1892 he married Esther Levi Bensusan in Richmond. While renting a cottage at Epping, Essex on 8 October 1893 their daughter and only child, Orovida Camille Pissarro, was born. Orovida also became an artist. He met Charles Ricketts and Charles Shannon, and contributed woodcuts to their Dial. In 1894 he founded the Eragny Press and with his wife and illustrated and printed books until the press was closed in 1914. In 1897 the family moved to 62 Bath Road in Stamford Brook, Chiswick. In 1903 he designed the typeface Brook Type.Pissarro associated with Walter Sickert in Fitzroy Street, and in 1906 became a member of the New English Art Club. From 1913 to 1919 he painted landscapes of Dorset, Westmorland, Devon, Essex, Surrey and Sussex.In 1916 Pissarro became a British citizen. While in Britain he was one of the founders of the Camden Town Group of artists. In 1919, he formed the Monarro Group with J.B. Manson as the London Secretary and Théo van Rysselberghe as the Paris secretary, aiming to show artists inspired by Impressionist painters, Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro. The group ceased three years later.From 1922 to 1937 he painted regularly in the south of France, interspersed with painting expeditions to Derbyshire, south Wales and Essex. From 1934 to 1944 he exhibited at the Royal Academy in London. He died on 10 July 1944, in Hewood, Dorset.In February 1926 Lucien went to Bormes les Mimosa which is on a hill overlooking Le Lavandou on the south coast of France. He painted many oils here and stayed until May when his mother, Julie Vellay passed away.

LOUIS ANQUETIN (1861-1932)Elégantes, scène de rue signed and dated 'Anquetin 88' (lower right)pastel, charcoal and wash on paper51.3 x 59cm (20 3/16 x 23 1/4in).Executed in 1888Footnotes:The authenticity of this work has been confirmed by Brame & Lorenceau. This work is included in the Louis Anquetin archives.ProvenanceEdouard Borderie Collection, Paris (acquired in 1946).Bernard & Betty French Collection, Kidderminster (acquired from the above circa 1947).Cyril Lavenstein Collection, Kidderminster (acquired from the above in 1956).Private collection, UK (acquired from the above in 1977).Thence by descent to the present owner.Louis Anquetin rose to fame in the late 1880s among the post-Impressionist artists, and was instrumental in the birth of Cloisonnism. Élégantes, scène de rue, executed in 1888, is a prime example of the artist's work from this key period. Anquetin studied at the Beaux-Arts de Paris in the studio of Fernand Cormon. Cormon was a pompier artist who painted large, academic subjects of historical inspiration which were welcomed by the Third Republic and deemed official art. Yet his atelier attracted many avant-garde painters who would radically separate themselves from academism and noble subjects (historical or allegorical), such as Vincent van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Émile Bernard. Remaining in this atelier for four years, Anquetin and his peers would inspire each other – the former's influence on van Gogh for example is particularly visible in works such as Avenue de Clichy, cinq heures du soir which preceded van Gogh's famous The Cafe Terrace on the Place du Forum by a year.Paul Gauguin would eventually also join these artists, and van Gogh named the group 'les artistes du petit boulevard'. Translating to 'the artists of the small boulevard', the name referred to the areas they worked around Montmartre, near the Boulevard de Clichy and the Boulevard de Rochechouart. The title was also to distinguish themselves from other well-established artists such as Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley and Camille Pissarro, who were termed 'les artistes du grand boulevard'. These artists worked in more elegant neighbourhoods and exhibited in major galleries, whereas Anquetin, van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Bernard would still exhibit in small cafés and restaurants. At the 1888 Salon des Indépendants, the critic Édouard Dujardin announced in the Revue Indépendante that Louis Anquetin had created a new genre, which he termed 'Cloisonnism'. This referred to a new post-Impressionist style of painting with bold and dark contours around flat areas of colours and simplified forms. It is said that the idea came to Anquetin when he was at his parents' house as he looked up outside through a glass door with coloured tiles. Also inspired by the Japanese prints collected by his friend Vincent van Gogh, Anquetin became transfixed by the different shades and colours that this stained glass gave the outside world. Dujardin's article immediately propelled Anquetin to fame. Élégantes, scène de rue was executed during that pivotal year of 1888. In accordance with the technique of Cloisonnism, the main figure in the present work, dressed in green, is delineated by a thick black line that creates a compartmentalisation of the forms whilst following the folds of her garment. Seen from behind, she crosses a boulevard whilst gazing to her right, beyond the composition. A second woman, holding an parasol, looks directly at her, whilst a gentleman seated in a carriage beyond contemplates them both. Anquetin builds the composition through a triangle of looks, which follows the path of each protagonist's gaze as it bounces from one figure to the other. In this enigmatic trio where no interest is reciprocal, the painter relegates the male gaze to the background of the composition and foregrounds instead the female gaze.The contrast between the elegantly depicted central figure and the more caricature-like appearance of the man in the carriage and the woman in purple – whose loud make-up hints she is a prostitute looking for a client - is characteristic of Anquetin's work and seen in works such as Élégante à l'Élysée Montmartre, 1888, in the Art Institute of Chicago. The more carefully constructed figure draws our attention away from the darker elements at play, nonetheless placing Anquetin as an observer of urban life in the late 1880s. Anquetin worked on a thematically linked group of works exploring the morals and behaviours of lesbian relationships, such as the one at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, which is very similar to the present work. As Richard Thomson explains, 'at the turn of the decade, Anquetin treated this specific theme on a number of occasions, representing the woman in her carriage on the lookout, the eye contact from carriage to pavement, and the pedestrian woman using her tongue to signal a passing vehicle' (R. Thomson, The Troubled Republic: Visual Culture and Social Debate in France, 1889-1900, London, 2004, p. 38). These images were discreet and relied on codes that were mostly insider knowledge, which made them an even more appealing subject for artists like Anquetin or Toulouse-Lautrec who were never reluctant to show controversial subjects at the turn of the century and explore the hidden side of Parisian society. A trip to Belgium and Holland with Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Jos Albert in 1894 however, prompted a shift in Anquetin's work towards a more classical style, heavily inspired by Old Masters such as Rubens and Rembrandt. He became a teacher and taught his pupils the 'retour au métier' ('return to the craft'), rather than encouraging them to strive for modernity and experimentation. The present work thus marks a poignant end to his most creative and innovative period.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

French school, ca.1870-1880."Afternoon at the Beach.Oil on canvas.Size: 40 x 95 cm; 66 x 121 cm (frame).With a landscape framing and a wide panoramic opening, the present canvas resolved with impressionist technique, carried out at the time when this artistic movement was breaking moulds with its way of capturing reality, denotes the influence of painters like Renoir or Monet. The dense forest on the left is thinning with trees as it approaches the sea, opening up on the right with a magnificent marina lined with boats. Elegant women are nestling among the makeshift tents that have been set up for picnics. Others, with their husbands and young offspring, head for the shore, attracted by the sailing boats, breaking up into small groups. The vibrant, impastoed brushstroke captures from nature the web of light and colour filtering through the thick green canopies, breaking up the forms but without losing the referential element: the elegant headdresses, long, long-tailed dresses, cotton aprons, fine lace.... And although the detail is subsumed by the typically Impressionist incandescent light, there remains a certain reluctance to stop describing the quality of the fabrics, the narrative implicit in the gestures, the anecdote of each gesture. This is a coastal landscape, probably Norman, perhaps from the Loire region, which was also immortalised by Renoir in those years when plein air painting reached a high level of development. Outdoor picnics, dances and everyday pleasures were sublimated by the French Impressionists, revolutionising the way of looking.

RENOIR PIERRE-AUGUSTE: (1841-1919) French Impressionist artist. A good vintage signed 8.5 x 6.5 photograph, being a reproduction of one of the artist's still life studies featuring a fish and entitled Nature Morte au Poisson. Signed ('Renoir') in black ink with his name alone to the lower white border. Also signed by the Mayor of Cagnes beneath a short statement confirming the authenticity of Renoir's signature, dated 10th January 1911. The lower border also features the Mayor's official purple rubber stamp. Neatly mounted to a 9 x 9.5 page removed from a contemporary album. Some very light, extremely minor age wear, VG In the later years of his life Renoir suffered from the crippling effects of arthritis which impacted on his work and he turned to subjects which could be executed in the studio, including still-lifes. Such paintings could be finished quickly, illustrated by the sureness of the long, gestural strokes which define the fish in the present image. Nature Morte au Poisson, an oil on canvas, was originally owned by Renoir's cataloguer, the French art dealer Ambroise Vollard (1866-1939). Vollard, in order to avoid any future disputes regarding the authenticity of works by Renoir, had all the original paintings photographed and then asked Renoir to sign each photograph whilst being witnessed by the Mayor of Cagnes.

Gustave Caillebotte, 1848 Paris – 1894 Gennevilliers, zug.LE JARDIN, UM 1878 Öl auf Leinwand. 33 x 46 cm. In dekorativem vergoldetem Rahmen.Der erste Eindruck von dem Gemälde ist der einer Fülle von Farben. Vor allem der Vordergrund ist mit einem weichen Pinselstrich versehen, von einem Grün, das nicht versucht, sich von den Pinselstrichen zu lösen, mit denen es ausgebreitet wurde. Die Unschärfe der Behandlung lädt unser Auge dazu ein, darüber hinaus in die Tiefe des Bildes zu fokussieren. Dort tauchen Topfpflanzen auf und noch weiter hinten ein hoher Tisch mit drei Beinen. Wir befinden uns in einem Garten, der von einem Weg mit Blumenkästen durchzogen ist. Das Blumenbeet im Vordergrund erhält so seine volle Bedeutung und seinen Platz. Gustave Caillebotte hat mit seinem schnell gemalten Gemälde einen impressionistischen Eindruck hinterlassen; Farben und verstreut hier und da seine roten Pinselstriche, die nach den Regeln der Perspektive immer weniger werden. Das gleißende Licht der reinen Farben im Vordergrund ist zwar auch auf die der impressionistischen Malweise zuzuschreiben, ist es doch der Blickwinkel, der die Originalität dieser Komposition ausmacht. Der Blickwinkel befindet sich in der Nähe der Blumen im Vordergrund und zeigt uns den Tisch in einer leichten Untersicht. Innovativ, gewagt, wie eine Fotografie gerahmt, fasst dieses Werk auf den Punkt allein die Modernität von Gustave Caillebotte. (†)Provenienz: Privatsammlung A.K., Paris. Anmerkung: Gustave Caillebotte (1848-1894) war ein französischer Maler des Impressionismus. Nach einem Jurastudium begann er im Atelier von Léon Bonnat (1833-1922) zu malen und später an der École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Nach dem Tod seines Vaters im Jahr 1874 erbte er ein komfortables Vermögen und konnte sich der Malerei widmen. Zu dieser Zeit beginnt er kleine Bildformate des Familienanwesens in Yerres zu malen, bis es 1878 verkauft wurde. Sein erstes Bild im Jahr 1875 war das realistische Gemälde „Les Raboteurs de parquet“ und wurde auf dem Salon wegen seines prosaischen Themas, der Arbeit von Arbeitern, abgelehnt. Caillebotte wandte sich daraufhin dem Impressionismus zu und nahm an den Impressionistenausstellungen von 1876, 1877, 1879, 1880 und 1882 teil. Er unterstützte die Bewegung finanziell und beteiligte sich persönlich an bei der Organisation der Ausstellungen. Er kaufte Gemälde von Monet, Pissarro, Degas, Renoir und Manet und baute so eine außergewöhnliche Sammlung auf, die er nach seinem Tod dem Staat vermachte. Diese Gemälde befinden sich heute im Musée d’Orsay in Paris. Im Jahr 1880 kaufte Caillebotte ein Anwesen in Petit-Gennevilliers am Ufer der Seine, wo er seine impressionistischen Freunde empfing, darunter insbesondere Monet, der sich von seinem Garten inspirieren ließ, um seinen eigenen in Giverny anzulegen. Der Kontakt mit ihm führte dazu, dass der glatte Pinselstrich und die scheinbare Zeichnung der Anfänge verschwanden, und stattdessen setzt er nun auf eine fragmentierte Zeichnung und die Darstellung von Formen und Licht durch die Gegenüberstellung von Farben, wie man sie in diesem Garten bewundern kann. Als Paul Durand-Ruel 1886 in New York eine große Impressionistenausstellung mit 300 Gemälden organisierte, waren auch zehn Bilder von Caillebotte dabei vertreten, was ihn beim amerikanischen Publikum bekannt machte. Sein früher Tod im Alter von 46 Jahren unterbrach den Werdegang eines der originellsten Talente des Impressionismus und brachte ihn um seinen Ruhm, den er erst ein Jahrhundert später erlangte.

In vergoldetem und profiliertem Holzrahmen.Beigegeben eine Expertise von Paul Pétridès, Paris, 23. Juni 1978, sowie von Blache, 1978. Schon seit 1830 werden in der Moulin de la Galette jeden Sonntag Bälle veranstaltet, selbst wenn sie erst 1895 unter diesem Namen firmiert und offiziell ein Cabaret wird. Beide hier dargestellten Mühlen, die stark im Vordergrund befindliche und die weiter hinten über den Dächern ragende Mühle, gehörten der gleichen Familie namens Debray, deren Entwicklungsdrang wir kulturhistorisch hinsichtlich des Lebens auf dem Montmatre und der Malerei verdanken. Utrillo malte das Mühlenensemble mit seinem Cabaret von der Ecke Rue Lepic/ Rue Girardon aus. Die Mühle wurde sowohl von Van Gogh gemalt, wie auch als Innenansicht etwa von Toulouse-Lautrec, Renoir und Picasso. Hier wird sie von Utrillo in flächiger Farbgebung mit dezenter Figurenstaffage in der Zwischenkriegszeit wiedergegeben. (†)Provenienz: Auktion Floralies, 1978, Lot 101.

A friendship formed, and it is clear from Gauguin’s letters that he was expecting the Irishman to accompany him on his return to the South Seas. Although O’Conor declined, the relationship had a far-reaching affect on his life and his art: “… Gauguin’s strength of character and convincing style of talk made a deep impression on the young, or youngish, Irishman…” (Clive Bell, Old Friends, 1956, p. 166).Further to Gauguin’s final departure from France in 1895, O’Conor embarked on a group of nocturnes inspired by the scenery around Le Pouldu on the southern coast of Brittany, and the riverside town of Pont-Aven, 25 kilometres inland. The theme first emerged in an etching, Full Moon on the Coast, and was then developed in several moonlit seascapes painted in gouache, as well as a handful of oil paintings including The Bull and the Moon and A Moonlit Breton Landscape (Benington 1992, p. 199, nos. 81 and 84). These artworks stood apart from O’Conor’s earlier Breton landscapes on account of their greater reliance on the imagination, as if conceived from memory rather than direct observation.In Marine au Clair de Lune we see a clifftop house with a light shining in its windows, overlooking a sailing ship caught in the reflected path of the full moon, a glowing orb half hidden by a cloud at the top of the composition. The close juxtaposition of land and sea, safety and uncertainty, may be a recollection of the house at St Julien, a hamlet of Le Pouldu situated at the mouth of the Laita river, where O’Conor had stayed with his friend Armand Seguin in 1893 and, two years later, the two of them watched as Gauguin spontaneously composed an etching. Writing to Seguin four years later, O’Conor revealed that he had plans for a picture of St Julien, perhaps identifiable with the present work. One of its most striking features is the way its dreamlike quality has been given substance through technical innovation: O’Conor has applied his colours very thickly, making extensive use of the palette knife in order to obtain a richly textured surface. The granular effect of this build-up of pigment is particularly suited to capturing the glimmer of light on the water surrounding the two-masted vessel. Like most of his other moonlit pictures, the present work was most probably begun during the years 1895-98 when O’Conor was living in comparative isolation at Rochefort-en-terre, a hilltop village in the heart of rural Brittany. Unable, or unwilling, to accompany Gauguin to Papeete, he may have chosen this location because it was less visited by artists and tourists than Pont-Aven, more authentically Breton in its preservation of time-honoured religious and cultural practices. Here he had the space and freedom to experiment with new ideas, notably Gauguin’s dictum that the remembered image was a more effective embodiment of ideas and emotions than the observed one. By relying to a greater extent on his memory and imagination, O’Conor arrived at a range of themes that were uniquely personal to him. The mystery of a work such as Marine au Clair de Lune lifts it onto a Symbolist plane, recalling O’Conor’s association with writers such as Alfred Jarry, Léon-Paul Fargue and Charles Morice. And like Wordsworth who defined poetry as emotion recollected in tranquillity, here O’Conor seems to evoke the experiences that had meant the most to him just a few years earlier – moonlit walks, the proximity of the sea and windswept cliffs, the stimulating company of fellow artists, and a warm house to return to at the end of the day.    Jonathan Benington, February 2022

French school; late 19th century."Bucolic scene".Oil on canvas.It preserves a period frame with faults in the carving.It has an illegible signature.Measurements: 25 x 43 cm; 41 x 46 cm (frame).Landscape of idyllic character in which a woman is accompanied by several children. She is overwhelmed by a landscape of great magnitude that opens in the centre, leaving a space that allows to see a landscape in depth. The author has thus combined two completely different views of the landscape, merging them into a single image in a coherent and harmonious manner. The author shows great interest in the characteristics and qualities offered by the landscape.Both the aesthetic and thematic treatment of the work indicate that he was a painter in contact with Impressionist trends. Although at first it may have been a scene with a pastoral or gallant theme, so much in vogue in the late 18th century, the artist has focused his interest on a specific moment in reality, thus linking himself to realist trends and to the Impressionists' interest in capturing the moment and defining its atmosphere. In terms of aesthetics, the use of a rapid, vibrant brushstroke, together with the play of light already mentioned, link the work to Impressionism, making it close to scenes by Renoir, who worked with great interest on the reflection of light on the skin and its qualities. In short, the characteristics of this work bring together various trends that developed in France in the early 19th century, making the country, and especially the city of Paris, one of the most important cultural centres of the period.

§ PAUL LUCIEN MAZE (FRENCH 1887-1979) GARDENING Signed lower right, pastel on buff paper(26cm x 36.5cm (10.25in x 14.25in))Provenance: Artist's studio sale.Footnote: Note: Sold without reserve. Paul Maze was born in Normandy, the birthplace of impressionism. Fittingly, his biography is titled ‘The Lost Impressionist’, although he is also frequently described as a Post-Impressionist. His immersion in both movements is unsurprising. He knew Monet and Renoir, and Pisarro was an early teacher. He friends included Derain and Bonnard and he sketched with Raoul Dufy. George Braque was a lifelong friend and he was particularly close to Vuillard who encouraged his use of pastel. Maze had a strong Scottish connection; his first army post was as a volunteer interpreter with the Scots Greys. He served in both world wars and was a much-decorated hero who was awarded the Croix de Guerre, Legion D’honneur, the Military Medal and the Distinguished Conduct Medal. He developed a close friendship with Winston Churchill, whom he taught. He was a frequent visitor to Chartwell. Churchill wrote the preface to Maze’s autobiography and the forward to his 1939 New York exhibition. Then, he wrote “with the fewest of strokes, he can create an impression at once true and beautiful” His work was in the collection of the late Queen Mother and is held in many public collections, including the Tate and at Glasgow. This collection came from the artist’s family. It includes his favourite subjects, Trooping the Colour, still life, yachting, the Sussex landscape of his adopted country and, especially, his beloved wife, Jessie.
