About the Item

Oil on canvas by Amedee de La PATELLIERE, France, 1928. Eclipse with four characters. With frame: 63x54 cm - 24.8x21.25 inches ; without frame: 41x33 cm - 16.15x13 inches. Format 6F. Signed lower right "A. de la Patellière". In its period Montparnasse frame in carved wood. Comes with its certificate of authenticity by Mr. Yves de la Patellière from June 15, 1986. Yves de la Patellière, now deceased, was one of the sons of Amédée's older brother. He was therefore the nephew and manager of the work of Amédée at the time of this certificate. Biography Amédée de La Patellière was born in the vineyards of Nantes, at the Château de Bois-Benoît in Vallet. He spent his childhood in the countryside, which was to be one of the sources of inspiration for his work. After preparing for the Naval School, he entered the Académie Julian in Paris in 1910. He then divided his time between his family home in Bois-Benoît, Paris, and the south of Seine-et-Oise. He was wounded in action during the First World War. On his return from the war in 1919, he spent some time in Tunisia from where he brought back luminous sketches. Settled in Paris, he married Suzanne Lamon in 1924. He was a professor at the Académie Ranson in Paris from 1929 to 1932 and was one of the founding artists of the Young Painting group (with Yves Alix, Robert Lotiron and Louis-Joseph Soulas). contemporary. He was also the friend of Bertrand Mogniat-Duclos. Like his friends André Dunoyer de Segonzac and Henri Le Fauconnier, he announces a form of expressionism, where the dense and dark material, organized in chiaroscuro, gives a solid volume to the rustic subjects he likes. We perceive a distant influence of cubism in his structured compositions, but with an expression of intense gravity (The Rest in the Cellar, National Museum of Modern Art, Paris). His earthy roughness, however, excludes the picturesque, because the artist seems more preoccupied with plasticity than realism. During stays in Provence, in the last years of his life (1930-1931), his palette diversified. He met the writer Jean Giono, for whom he produced the illustrations for his novel Colline, and whose lyricism was very close to his own. Seriously ill in 1929, he died in Paris in 1932.

  • Edith Desternes, The Church Notre-Dame de l'Assomption in Auvers-sur-Oise, 1920s
    Located in Saint Amans des cots, FR
    Oil on canvas by Edith Desternes (1901-2000), France, 1920s. The Church Notre-Dame de l'Assomption in Auvers-sur-Oise. This church has been painted in 1890 by Vincent van Gogh. At first glance, one is struck by the strength of this work. Then, on examination, one is captivated by this depth of soul and technique. Edith Desternes uses a thick paint here where black, and dark colors, play a privileged role. Thus the contrast between the warm and cold tones, surrounded by black, create an intense luminosity reminiscent of stained glass windows from the Middle Ages. Georges Rouault is present in this powerful work. With frame : 87x66 cm - 34.25x26 inches ; without frame : 81x60 cm - 31.9x23.6 inches ; 25P Format. Signed "E. Desternes" lower right (see photo). On the back, we notice the pictorial material dropped by the artist, it is not a restoration. The condition is excellent ! Céline Édith Desternes was born in Paris on February 21, 1901. She was the daughter of Louis Desternes (1864-1936), professor at the Lycée...
