About the Item

Emile Wegelin: Capturing the Essence of Nature.  Painting on Hardboard   Size-Width Size-Height: 32'' x 25'' Signed in Ink Emile Wegelin (1875-1962) devoted his life to painting. He received training from the most highly regarded painters in the Lyon area - Guiguet, Drevet, Broullard and Henri Grosjean - Wegelin developed a precise technique and was a master pf his craft. He expressed his deep love of nature with ease and communicated through his work an impression of simplicity, which is the attribute of great artists. An inexhaustible traveler, Wegelin journeyed throughout Europe, often by foot, with his palette, boards and brushes. He knew how to capture the exact moment at dawn while haze floated mysteriously over a lake or pond. He had the patience to wait for the glowing sunset, rendering its last light with a swift touch of the brush capturing its essence. Of Wegelin, art historian and expert on the French Minor Masters Gerald Schurr has said, "An outstanding artist, in the manner of Pierre-Eugene Montezin…" Wegelin often painted with Montezin - the painter of seasons. Since Wegelin was from a wealthy family, he was not required to enter the commercial circuit. When he did exhibit his paintings at the insistence of his fellow painters like Montezin, Wegelin's paintings brought the same acclaim and prices.

  • City - 4 , 1977 Large Painting
    By Hilo Chen
    Located in Rochester Hills, MI
    Hilo Chen Painting oil on canvas 54 x 54 in 137 x 137 cm Contemporary photo-realist painter Hilo Chen (Yee-Lum) was born in 1942 in Taiwan and later became an American citizen. He is noted for his paintings of nudes and flowers. Chen's as painter is nothing less than superb. The skin tones of his nudes seem more "real" than life itself. You feel as though you can almost touch these women who are so oblivious to being observed. Chen's work is held in public collections at: The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY; San Jose Museum of Art, San Jose CA...

  • La Toilette - Post-Impressionist Nude Oil Painting by Georges D'Espagnat
    By Georges d'Espagnat
    Located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire
    Signed oil on original canvas nude circa 1914 by French post impressionist painter Georges D'espagnat. The work depict a nude woman standing beside a wash basin in a boudoir. Signature: Signed lower right Dimensions: Framed: 45"x34" Unframed: 37"x26" Provenance: Private collection - Netherlands From the beginning of his career, it was a constant concern of Georges d'Espagnet to assert his originality. His studies at the École des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, did not last very long, for he wanted immediate independence and decided to follow courses in the private academies of Montparnasse. In about 1900, he became acquainted with Maurice Denis, Bonnard and Vuillard, and his collaboration with Denis led to a renewal of religious art in France. In 1903, d'Espagnet was one of the founders of the Salon d'Automne, and was appointed professor in charge of studios at the École des Beaux-Arts, Paris, in 1934. He illustrated a number of books: Rémy de Gourmont's Evil Prayers ( Oraisons mauvaises) (1896), The Saints of Paradise ( Les Saintes du paradis) (1898), Simone (1907), Sistine ( Sixtine) (1922); Alphonse Daudet's The Immortal ( L'Immortel) (1930); André Gide's The Pastoral Symphony ( La Symphonie pastorale); Francis Jammes' Clearings in the Sky ( Chairières dans le ciel) (1948). D'Espagnet belongs to the group of artists who made the Courrier Français so successful. The drawings of his which are published in it are strongly expressive and some bear comparison with the designs of the great Renaissance masters. He also contributed to L'Image. He often placed cheerful nudes in a landscape, reminding us that, though he moved away from the Fauves, he retained their freedom of colour and arabesque. He painted many portraits, including those of Albert André, André Barbier, Victor Boucher, Déodat de Séverac, Albert Marque, André Marty and Albert Roussel. He also painted mural decorations, including a wall for the Palais de la Découverte (1937), the ceiling of the Victor Hugo Room in the Palais du Luxembourg (1939), a decorative panel for the Palais de Justice, Toulouse (1941) and interior decorations for private houses. His landscapes are Impressionist in inspiration, and work for a certain sobriety, an intimacy, both in their composition - one, two or three sketched figures and large open spaces - and in the choice of colours and treatment with the special hazy brushstroke that marks his style. D'Espagnet took part in a number of annual Parisian exhibitions, including the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, the Salon d'Automne (from 1903 to 1949, except in special circumstances), the Salon de la Libre Ésthétique, Brussels (1899, 1901), the Berlin Secessionists (1940). He also exhibited at the first Salon de la Société de la Gravure sur Bois. Among other exhibitions were 1912, A Century of French Art ( Centenaire de l'art français), St Petersburg; 1916, Kunstverein, Winterthur; 1918, 1926, Galerie M. Bertheim, Paris; 1930, Contemporary French Art...
