About the Item
Henri Thomas is remembered as the quintessential Belgian painter of La Belle Epoque. His images of women from the cafés, bars and bordellos of Brussels are some of the most haunting produced at the time and rival those of Toulouse Lautrec for their exactitude and sense of feeling. In this example however, dating to around 1910, Henri Thomas has chosen to paint a simple floral piece. These ‘Nature-Morte’ compositions are extremely rare amongst his oeuvre and are highly prized for their delicate coloring and subtle paint handling. A similar flower-piece is illustrated in the Dictionary of Belgian Flower Painters by Patrick Berko.
Henri Thomas was born in the town of Saint-Jans-Molenbeek in 1878 and at the age of seventeen enrolled at the Academy of Brussels. Here he received a classical training in the arts specializing in painting and etching. Graduating in 1898 he established a studio in Brussels and for a few years worked predominantly as a book illustrator producing delicate line drawings for some of Belgium’s most important avant-garde authors. By the very early years of the new century he had become primarily an easel painter and his work was gaining wide popularity as a result of his participation in the exhibitions of the Salon du Cercle Artistique de Bruxelles in 1905 and again in 1909. For the next forty years he exhibited widely throughout Belgium and various other European cities where his work was always highly prized and collected. Henri Thomas died in Brussels in 1972 but his paintings can be seen today in Belgium at the museums of Liege and Brussels.

- Reveil Matin (Alarm Clock) by Kimura Chuta, Impressionism, New School of ParisLocated in PARIS, FRChuta KIMURA (also "Tchuta" or "Tshuta") is an allusive landscape painter and pastellist. His name - composed of the words Ki (tree) and Mura (village) - literally means "village tree". The artist was born into a middle-class family with an ancestral Samurai background. From the age of 13, he took drawing lessons at the Takamatsu School of Decorative Arts. In 1936, he went on to study at Tokyo's Nika Art Academy, where the academic teaching did not suit him. In 1937, he exhibited for the 1st time at the Dokuritsu Salon, but was immediately drafted by the army to serve in China - where, despite the war, he developed a passion for ancient calligraphy. In 1940, he eventually returned to Japan due to illness. Shortly afterwards, in 1941, he discovered a painting by Pierre Bonnard at the Ohara Art Museum in Kurashiki, the light of which overwhelmed him. He was mobilized again in China in 1945, then, once the war was over, he resumed his exhibitions in Tokyo and discovered Bonnard once again. In 1947, he married Satchiko Yunoki, with whom he decided to move to Paris. Thanks to a patron, the young couple settled in Montparnasse in March 1953 (taking over the former studio of his illustrious compatriot, Foujita). In 1954, he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français and met Jacques Zeitoun, artistic director of the "Art Vivant" gallery (Paris and Lyon), who immediately signed him up. From 1955 onwards, Kimura enjoyed a steady stream of solo exhibitions - in Paris (e.g. Galerie St Placide, Kriegel, or Art Yomiuri - the latter exhibiting his work 4 times at FIAC in the 1980s); Lyon (e.g. Galerie St Georges); Antibes (e.g. Galerie St Georges); and Paris. galerie St Georges); Antibes (ex. galerie René Raporte); Brussels (ex. galerie de France et du Benelux); Geneva (ex. galerie Krugier); Tokyo (ex. galleries Nichido, or Takarashi); and New York (ex. galleries David Findlay, or Ruth Sigel). The artist also participated in fairs and group exhibitions (e.g. Biennale de Paris in 1957, Centre Pompidou in 1979, The Phillips Collection in 1985). In 1962, he moved to Châtenay-Malabry and met Jean Grenier - professor of philosophy and holder of the chair of aesthetics and art science at the Sorbonne - who became his principal biographer: "When Kimura rightly prides himself on uniting East and West, which, he writes, are as different from each other as day and night are from each other, he might add that it is by remaining himself and drawing on the dual traditions of his country that he has succeeded in creating a work that is at once so violent and so gentle. In 1963, the French State bought a painting from him - "Jardin à Châtenay". In 1965, Galerie Kriegel (recently opened by his 1st dealer...Category
