PAUL CHABAS (FRENCH 1869 - 1937), LA NYMPHE oil on canvas, signed 30cm x 21cm Framed Note: Paul Chabas was born in Nantes, and trained under William-Adolphe Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury. He first exhibited at the Salon in 1890. Chabas won the Prix National at the 1899 Paris Salon with his Joyeux Ébats. He was awarded a gold medal at the Exposition Universelle of 1900 and in 1912 received the Médaille d'honneur. His preferred subject was the female nude in a natural setting. He was, and still is, considered to be one of Europe's greatest painters of nudes. His most famous painting, September Morn (1912), became a "Succès de scandale" in the United States in May, 1913. There was much publicity, and reproductions of the painting sold briskly for years afterwards. Chabas said he did not originally intend to sell the painting, because it was his wife's favorite. When he entered the painting in the Paris Salon of 1912, he set a price of $10,000, which he believed no one would pay. Leon Mantashev, son of oil magnate Alexander Mantashev, was willing to meet this price, and the painting was sold to him. In the 1890s, Chabas had illustrated books by such authors as Paul Bourget and Alfred de Musset. He also did some illustrating work for the French publisher Alphonse Lemerre. He became a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in 1921 and received the Légion d'honneur in 1928. From 1925 to 1935 he was president of the Société des Artistes Français. He died in Paris on May 10, 1937 and it was reported at the time that US buyers alone had purchased more that seven million reproductions of his paintings. On 15th November 2015 McTear's sold a larger watercolour by Paul Chabas (lot 8, The Lily, for £6000 hammer)

Stan Jones (Welsh, b.1930) "Images Stalk the Trees" signed on the reverse "Stan Jones" watercolour and ink Welsh artist Stan Jones will celebrate his forthcoming 80th birthday with a retrospective exhibition of his Dylan Thomas-inspired works at the Oriel Washington Gallery in Penarth. The artist, who grew up in Pembrokeshire explains, "The exhibition will be a celebration, a retrospective of the work I've done in the past, and includes 80 pieces from the 50s, 60s and 70s into the present." Stan Jones began painting with inspiration from Dylan Thomas' s poetry following a holiday in Cornwall nearly 50 years ago, when his wife was reading a collection of his writing. He explains: "I had been dabbling in the studio but Thomas' s remarks about nature, the sun, moon and stars started me on that angle. I very seriously got going and made an exhibition of about 100 paintings based on his poetry. In his work, Dylan Thomas expresses himself well about the manmade world and the natural world, always referring back to those ideas. He was quite spiritual and that shows in his work too. His lines had been ringing in my mind every time I came to paint. I didn't want any of my pieces to go at that first exhibition because I had grown so attached to them." Jones studied art at Trinity College in Carmarthen and at Cardiff College of Art. He was the former Head of Art at St Cyres School in Penarth, teaching at the school for nearly 30 years. As well as Dylan Thomas' s work, Jones has depicted the poetry of Waldo Williams, a fellow Pembrokeshire man and one of his favourite Welsh language poets. He adds: "My work is perhaps not quite as lyrically abstract now as it was in the 60s. But even the abstract work included ideas based on nature and farming the land. But there haven't been big changes in my work over the years apart from the use of different media, perhaps". Stan Jones: A Retrospective was at at the Oriel Washington Gallery in Penarth, Cardiff from Sunday 4 July to Sunday 25 July 2010. A little discolouration and foxing.
