Pierre-Laurent Brenot (1913-1998) In 1928, he entered the École Estienne where he attended classes for three years. Then he continued his training as a designer with Fernand Hertenberger. Pierre-Laurent Brenot's gifts of observation and precision in his pencil stroke were immediately noticed.During the fashion years (from 1936 to 1950),he was hired by Monsieur Chatard, a great tailor for men and women, in his Fashionable store, at number 16 boulevard Montmartre. He then created a line of men's suits. On his momentum, he produced numerous fashion designs for other great couturiers (Christian Dior, Jacques Fath, Cristóbal Balenciaga, Nina Ricci, Jeanne Lafaurie ...) as well as for the Lanvin and Rochas houses, or for milliners (Maude and Mano, Legroux, Paulette). From 1944, he began a career as a poster artist and illustrator. However, with the rise of photography in the sixties, this activity was reduced. Pierre-Laurent Brenot then reoriented himself towards his initial vocation as an artist-painter.

- Gustav Melcher ( German, 1898 -?) Boats off Venice Italy Ink Water Color c. 1918By Gustav MelcherLocated in Meinisberg, CHGustav Melcher (German, 1898-?) Segelschiffe vor Venedig - Sailing ships off Venice • India ink, water colour wash • Visible image ca. 11.5 x 18 cm • Glased Frame ca. 20 x 25 cm • Verso various inscriptions • Signed lower right Worldwide shipping for this object is complimentary - There are no additional charges for handling & delivery. Gustav Melcher was a German painter and a pioneer in film, film criticism and film theory and created this clever little picture of the skyline of Venice with various vessels. Going by the various inscriptions an the backing paper, this drawing was made in 1918 when Gustav was twenty years old and passed on three years later to Gertrud Melcher on the 1. 2. 1921. I have no reasons to doubt this information. The small drawing is still in its unopened frame, so maybe there is more information to be discovered , however this will be the privilege of the next owner. The picture also has retained its original antique frame – note that it has lost over the years various sections of the gesso decoration. The very precisely executed drawing is most enjoyable to look at and doing so, remember you are looking through the eyes of a young man, who saw this foreign sea cape over a century ago. Thank you for your interest and please note, that I offer free worldwide shipping on all my items. Gustav Melcher began his studies at the Düsseldorfer Kunstakademie under Peter Janssen and Eduard von Gebhardt. Originaly he was interested in figurative and portrait painting, but after time he decided to pursue the depiction of land- and marinescapes. Durin his studies the young artist undertook trips to visit England, Scotland, Belgium and France and he joined the artist society Malkasten. It was in those days he would hold speeches to his colleges about this new invention called ‘Kintopp’ – Melcher was a great advocate of the moving pictures...Category
