Unknown

About the Item

This 19th Century oil-on-canvas painting of a girl holding a lamb with a Border Collie at her feet is circa 100 years old and is by the prolific English artist Henry John Yeend King (1855-1924). King was a British artist best known for his paintings of rustic English farms and young women strolling in the countryside. His technique was influenced by Impressionism, but is notably more restrained, detailed, and realistic in its application. Born on August 21, 1855 in London, England, King went on to study as a glass painter, later traveling to Paris to study under Léon Joseph Florentin Bonnat and Fernand Cormon where he learned Impressionist techniques. His works are in the collections of the Manchester Art Gallery, the New Walk Museum and Art Gallery in Leicester, and the Brampton Museum in Newcastle-under-Lyme, among others. King died on June 10, 1924 in London. Ref: E. Bénézit, Dictionnaire des Peintres, Sculpteurs, Dessinateurs et Graveurs, C.Wood, Dictionary of British Art, Vol IV, Victorian Painters.

    By Emilio Grau Sala
    Located in Madrid, ES
    EMILIO GRAU SALA Spanish, 1911 - 1975 PLAGE DE TROUVILLE signed Grau Sala (lower left) signed again, located & dated "Grau Sala, Trouville, 1953" on the reverse oil on canvas 15 X 24 inches (38 X 61 cm.) framed: 24-1/2 X 33-3/4 inches (62.5 X 85.5 cm.) PROVENANCE Private French Collection Emilio Grau Sala came from a family of artists. He was born in Barcelona in 1911 and his father, a good cartoonist, had been one of the promoters of the "Salon des Humanistes" and made his exhibitions normally in the Parés Hall. His first works were exhibited at the Salon des Independents, in the years 1930-33. Grau Sala was essentially a Mediterranean painter, son of post-impressionism and enriched with French painting of the last fifty years. Grau Sala lived and absorbed all the avant-garde movements that broke through in Paris, but never adhered to any. Creating your personal style. His pictorial lyricism and naturalism superimposed the evotative and sensitive quality of the image to any other concern. In 1953 Grau Sala spends his first summer in Honfleur becoming one of the most active Honflerian painters. Honfleur forms a coast triangle next to Deauville and Trouville, and in that August of 53, Grau Sala pinto is an elegant beach, which at that time met French and European high society. His works can be found in the Museums of the Villa de Paris, L'Ile de France Museum, at the Château de Sceaux, Honfleur Museum, La Rochelle Museum, Barcelona Museum, Tossa de Mar...

PROVENANCE Private Collector, Madrid An elegant night view of the Parisian Republic Square, with amazing light effects that catch us. This work executed based on brushstrokes of long and safe strokes that make the forms vibrate with vivid color. Parisian nightlife is trapped in this corner of Paris. The monumental sculpture that symbolizes freedom and that presides over the square serves as a reference behind the tram between a light chiaroscuro. Meanwhile, the effervecent and lively life of the cafes that surround it vibrate strongly with its bright lights. Èdouard León Cortés (1882–1969) was a French post-impressionist artist of French and Spanish ancestry. He is known as "Le Poète Parisien de la Peinture" or "the Parisian Poet of Painting" because of his diverse Paris cityscapes in a variety of weather and night settings.
