Antonio Maria de Reyna Manescau
Antonio María Reyna Manescau, born December 5, 1859 and died February 3, 1937, was a Spanish painter who developed most of his career in Italy. Probably a member of the Malaga School of Painting, he studied under Bernardo Ferrándiz and alongside Moreno Carbonero. He moved to Italy in his early twenties, where he was further influenced by Italian and Spanish expatriate artists, and where he lived for the rest of his life. After his first stay in Venice in 1885, he specialized in landscape painting. He is widely known for the preciousness of his Venetian vedutas, the importance he places on the precise representation of architectural detail and his mastery of color. Among his most important works are his many views of the Venetian canals and Piazza San Marco, the classic Floralia scene (disappeared during the Spanish Civil War) and Rancho Andaluz. Born in the town of Coín (Málaga), he was one of ten children (six of whom died in childhood) of Francisco Reyna Zayas (1825-1892) and Matilde Manescau y Otsman (1823-1910). His parents enjoyed good social status, being his uncle José Reyna Zayas mayor of Coín when Antonio was a child. Being still a small boy, Antonio showed a great ability for drawing. Although he continued to live in Coín for the rest of his childhood, he began his artistic training at the School of Fine Arts in Malaga, where he was taught by Joaquín Martínez de la Vega, first, then by Bernardo Ferrándiz, founder of the Málaga School of Painting. He studied alongside the future master José Moreno Carbonero, who was only a year older than him. From an early age, he regularly exhibited his works, standing out in the local artistic milieu for his use of colors, the attractiveness of his compositions and the agility of his brushstrokes. In 1880, at age 20, he sold his first important work for the town hall of Coín

- Barque De Peche En Mer By Henry MoretBy Henry MoretLocated in New Orleans, LAHenry Moret 1856-1913 French Barque de Peche en Mer Fishing Boat at Sea Signed and dated “Henry Moret 1912” (lower left) Oil on canvas A beautiful gestural composition imbued with the sublime beauty of the open sea, this oil on canvas by Impressionist Henry Moret showcases the artist's deft use of color and texture. One of the most celebrated painters of the Pont-Aven School, Moret’s lasting reputation is tied to his talent for capturing the bright skies, lively waterways and the diverse coastline of northern France. With a mastery of plein air composition and a deep appreciation for the natural world, Moret's Barque de Peche en Mer renders a fishing boat navigating through the ocean. Moret creates a visceral sense of the vitality of the water and the enormity of the open skies. The artist captures the vigorous energy of the sea with a profusion of green and blue hues applied with a thick impasto. Small yet mighty against the infinite backdrop, Moret's fishing boat forges ahead. Henry Moret was born in Cherbourg in 1856, though little else is known about his early life. He entered military service as a young man in 1875, and it was during that period when Moret discovered the beauty of France’s northern coasts, particularly those of Normandy and Brittany. After his tour ended, he embarked on his artistic career, completing his formal education at the École Nationale des Beaux-Arts under Jean-Leon Gérôme, and later, from about 1880, under Jean-Paul Laurens at the Académie Julian. He exhibited for the first time at the Paris Salon in 1880, submitting a landscape of the coast of Brittany. During his time in Paris, he frequently traveled to Brittany to paint the region he so loved. In 1888, he more firmly established himself in Pont-Aven, a town whose center had become an artistic refuge for artists such as the great Paul Gauguin, Ernest Ponthier de Chamaillard, Emile Jourdan and others. Under Gauguin's influence, he briefly explored the concept of Symbolism in his works, but after Gauguin left Pont-Aven in 1891, Moret returned to his Impressionist roots. He formed a relationship with the famed dealer Durand-Ruel in 1895, and his career was officially launched. Today, his works can be found in important museums including the Manchester Art Gallery, the State Hermitage Museum (St. Petersburg), the National Gallery of Art (Washington DC) and others.
