A charming genre painting of children performing at a recital by Jean Pierre Haag. Whilst the older children listen to the music, a young girl hides behind a bench eating berries.
Jean Pierre Haag was born in Elbeuf in the Seine-Maritime area of Normandy, on 5 November, 1842, the son of Jean Haag and Geneviève Maloizel. He studied art in Paris and began exhibiting from around 1870 with genre scenes. He also joined the Ecouen artist colony situated in the northern suburbs of the city, living at 29 rue de Paris. There he became a pupil of Pierre Édouard Frère (1819-1886) whose influence can be seen in Haag’s work and Léon Dansaert (1830-1909).
He married Ernestine Juliette Confais on 8 February, 1872 and together they had several children. Their son Guston Paul Haag (1877-1931) also became an artist. Haag made his debut at the Paris Salon in 1879 and continued exhibiting there over the years. As well as residing in Ecouen, he also kept a house in Normandy where he often spent time. He became known for his humorous depictions of the life of everyday folk, usually set in their homes. Many of his works feature children and it is likely he would have used his own family as models.
He was interested in the history of Ecouen and collected a number of historical documents about the area. He died at Ecouen on 5 March, 1921. An example of his work can be found at the Louviers museum in Normandy.
Presentation: The work is housed in a new, English made gilt frame which is in excellent condition.
Condition: As with all of our original antique oil paintings, this work is offered in ready to hang gallery condition, having just been professionally cleaned, restored and revarnished.

- Historical genre oil painting of three gentlemen at a tableBy Frank Moss BennettLocated in Moreton-In-Marsh, GloucestershireFrank Moss Bennett British, (1874-1952) Papers to Discuss Oil on canvas, signed & dated 1922 Image size: 13.5 inches x 19.5 inches Size including frame: 20.25 inches x 26.25 inches A finely painted scene by Frank Moss Bennett depicting three gentlemen in 18th century costume conversing at a table. One of the men, dressed as a lawyer, looks over a document whilst the others smoke from clay tobacco pipes. Frank Moss Bennett was a portrait and genre painter who was born in Liverpool on November 15, 1874. He was the son of the Iron Founder Henry Mellor Bennett who was also became mayor of Liverpool. His family’s wealth enabled him to receive a good education, initially with a governess and then at Clifton College in Bristol. His talent for art emerged at a young age, however it was not until he left Bristol that he decided to follow a career in painting. He moved to London in 1892, most likely with his family who went to live in Croydon after his father’s retirement. There he studied at the Slade School of Art where he was taught by Henry Tonks and John Singer Sargent. He also met fellow artist Eddie Wells who became his friend, travel partner and brother-in-law. He later attended the St John’s School of Art and in 1896 entered the Royal Academy school, winning a gold medal and a scholarship to travel. He began exhibiting at the Royal Academy from 1898 with a work entitled ‘A Book Plate’, continuing to exhibit there until 1929. He also exhibited at the Paris Salon, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour. In 1900, Bennett used his scholarship money to go on a painting expedition to Italy with his friend Wells. On his return he lived with his family at 18 Warrington Road, Croydon and took a studio nearby at Alipore, Duppas Hill, where he began specialising in historical genre and portraits. His work portrayed life in seventeenth and eighteenth century England, depicting figures in tavern interiors, gentlemen discussing affairs of State or at leisure in their homes. He wanted his works to be historically accurate and used authentic props and antiques. He also accrued a large collection of costumes, some of which were later given to the Platt Hall Museum, Manchester and the Museum of London. He also developed an interest in historical architecture, particularly Tudor and made many sketches of buildings...Category

- 19th Century genre oil painting of a woman & child in a Welsh cottageLocated in Moreton-In-Marsh, GloucestershireAlfred Provis British, (1818-1890) By the Fireside Oil on canvas, signed & dated 1869 Image size: 10.5 inches x 15.5 inches Size including frame: 21.5 inches x 26.5 inches This charming cottage scene by Alfred Provis features a woman preparing supper by a fire with her young daughter. As the mother peels the turnips and places them in the pot, the girl’s attention is drawn to the kitten feeding from a saucer. The dress and hat of the woman bears a similarity to those found Provis’s other scenes of Welsh cottage interiors. The artist was known to have visited North Wales around the time this painting was produced. In 1869, he exhibited a work entitled ‘Interior of a Welsh Farmhouse’ at the Royal Society of British Artists. Given the level of detail in the painting and the fact that it is in such an impressive original frame, it is possible this is the same painting as the one exhibited. Alfred Provis was a genre painter born on 18 February, 1818 in Chippenham, Wiltshire. He was the son of John Provis, a timber merchant and his second wife Ann Banks. He spent time in London being tutored by the historical and portrait artist John Wood (1801-1870) before returning to Chippenham. He began exhibiting at the Royal Society of British Artists in 1843, continuing to exhibit there regularly until 1886. He made his debut at the Royal Academy in 1846 with a work entitled ‘A Cottage Door...Category
