About the Item
Born in London to Scottish parents, Peter Howson (b. 1958) has spent much of his life in Scotland and attended the Glasgow School of Art, receiving tutelage from Sandy Moffat. Religious themes run throughout Howson’s work, especially linked to his conversion to Christianity and treatment for addiction in 2000. In fact, Howson’s very first painting at the age of six was of the crucifixion. He never shied away from depicting pain within his art; he was the official British war artist in 1993 during the Bosnian War. He also created a British postage stamp in 1999, in addition to creating album art for multiple bands. Now, Howson’s artworks reside in many collections around the world, including the Hunterian Art Gallery, Guildhall Gallery, National Galleries of Scotland, and Fitzwilliam Museum.

- La femme aux fleurs (Portrait de Mathilde See)By Paul César HelleuLocated in New Orleans, LAPaul César Helleu is regarded among the most sought-after society portraitists of his era, and his Belle Époque works rival those of his contemporaries John Singer Sargent and Giovanni Boldini. He is best remembered for capturing the era's most beautiful socialites, including Consuelo Vanderbilt, the Duchess of Marlborough, the Comtesse de Loriol Chandieu and the Comtesse Mathieu de Noailles, among others. This work, however, stands out in that it captures the charming likeness of one of his art world cohorts, Mathilde See, a Parisian-born decorator and painter of floral still lifes. She is the essence of the modern woman, captured in her fashionable dress as she strolls along the flower-lined streets of Paris. Commanding in size, Portrait de Mathilde See fully displays Helleu's mastery over the medium of pastel. The muted palette of greys and blues is typical of the artist, bringing a harmony and cohesiveness to the composition. Furthermore, Helleu cleverly alludes to See's own artistic output with a backdrop of vibrant floral blooms, enlivening the canvas and complementing the greens and blues of the peacock feather adorning her hat. The portrait is all the more significant thanks to its provenance. It was previously in the collection of A. Alfred Taubman, one of America's most successful entrepreneurs and one-time owner of Sotheby's. Considering Taubman encountered some of the most noteworthy and beautiful works of art ever made through his auction house, the fact that he chose this portrait by Helleu to grace his collection is a testament to its import. Born in Brittany in 1859, Helleu moved to Paris in 1876 in order to study at the École des Beaux-Arts. Like so many other artists of his generation, he was trained there under the Academic master Jean-Léon Gérôme. That same year, he also attended the Second Impressionist Exhibition...Category
