Charles Camoin
Charles Camoin was a French Expressionist landscape painter associated with the Fauves. He painted a portrait of Matisse, which is in the permanent collection of the Pompidou Museum in Paris. Born in Marseille, France, on September 23, 1879, Camoin met Henri Matisse in Gustave Moreau's class at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Matisse and his friends, including Camoin, Henri Manguin, Albert Marquet, Georges Rouault, André Derain and Maurice de Vlaminck, formed the original group of artists labeled the Fauves for their wild, Expressionist-like use of color. Camoin always remained close to Matisse. Camoin's works have been widely shown in France and are in such major collections as the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris in addition to the Centre Georges Pompidou and many of the French regional museums. In 1955, he was awarded the Prix du President de la Republique at the Biennale of Menton. He died in Paris on May 20, 1965.

- Attributed J S Copley Two Nobles Portrait Paintings 18 century pastel parchmentLocated in Florence, ITOn the cardboard applied on the frame there is an annotation, belonging to some of the old owners, reporting the names of the portrayed in Kurrent handwriting: "Urgroßvater Ludwig Fr(ei)h(e)r(r) von Keller" "Urgroßmutter Fr(ei)h(e)r(rin) von Keller geb(oren) von Niebecker". So we can deduce that the models were Ludwig Friedrich Heinrich Ferdinand Baron of Keller (1760-1835), a German politician who was the director of the district of Prussia, and his wife Auguste Johanne Henriette Baroness of Niebecker (1760-1832). Their high class provenience is highlighted by the not contained expressive liveliness, by the proud pose imitating movement and by the elegance of the clothes which fabric seems palpable (especially sincere is the evanescent depiction of the pleated veil of the gorget and the adorned with arabesques decoration of the sleeves and the vest). The two pieces can be attributed to John Singleton Copley...Category
