About the Item
Charles COUSIN
Canvas Size: 26 x 32" (66 x 82cm)
Outside Frame Size: 36 x 42" (92 x 108cm)
Oil on Canvas
French School
In 1807 he was born in Paris. He died in 1887.
Cousin was a painter of portraits, landscapes and landscapes with water views.
Little is known about his early artistic career, however he is recorded as having studied under Léon Joseph Florentin Bonnat, who was a professor at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris and was one of the leading portraiture artists of his day.
Early in his career Cousin painted portraits in the manner of his tutor Bonnat, but later went on to master landscapes and embraced a looser more impressionistic manner of painting. Most notable are his exquisite paintings of Venice, where he manages to capture the tranquil reflections of light on the canals and waterways of that magical city.
He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Francais.
Most of his views were of French and Italian landscapes with his scenes of Venice being the most popular.

- The Flower GirlBy Louise AbbemaLocated in St. Albans, GBLouise Abbéma 1853–1927 Louise Abbéma (30 October 1853[1] – 10 July 1927) was a French painter, sculptor, and designer of the Belle Époque. Abbéma was born in Étampes, Essonne Born into a wealthy aristocratic Parisian family with close ties to the city’s artistic community, She began painting in her early teens, and studied under such notables of the period as Charles Joshua Chaplin, Jean-Jacques Henner and Carolus-Duran. Portraits of actors and actresses at the Comédie Française dominated her early works until she made a name for herself at the Salon of 1876 with her portrayal of the “Divine Sarah.” Abbéma ultimately executed multiple portraits and received recognition for her work at age 23 a bronze medallion of Sarah Bernhardt, with whom she was a close friend and possibly lover. Like most women artists of the time, Abbéma focused mainly on portraiture and genre scenes (images of everyday life). Her high-society portraits executed with a light touch and rapid brushstrokes reveal the academic and Impressionist influences that shaped her style. Her sitters included French diplomats and other notable members of society. Abbéma developed a variety of techniques using oil paints, pastel, and watercolor, and worked on various supports, including fans. Abbéma received commissions for panels and murals which adorned the Paris Town Hall, the Paris Opera House, numerous theatres including the Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, and the "Palace of the Colonial Governor" at Dakar, Senegal. Abbéma solidified her international reputation after exhibiting works, including two wall murals (on canvas), at the Women’s Building at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. A bust of Sarah Bernhardt sculpted by Abbéma was also exhibited at the exposition. Abbéma specialized in oil portraits and watercolors, and many of her works showed the influence from Chinese and Japanese painters, as well as contemporary masters such as Édouard Manet. She frequently depicted flowers in her works. Among her best-known works are The Seasons, April Morning, Place de la Concorde, Among the Flowers, Winter, and portraits of actress Jeanne Samary, Emperor Dom Pedro...Category
