Hughes Claude Pissarro
La PLage de Bordigherra

1991

About the Item

Screenprint printed in colors on heavy wove paper. Hand signed in black crayon lower right H. Claude Pissarro. A superb impression of the definitive state, from the edition of 435, numbered in black crayon lower right. Printed at Atelier d’Art Michel Caza, Paris. Hugues Claude Pissarro, the grandson of the great Impressionist painter Camillle Pissarro, and the son of Paulémile Pissarro, was born in Neuilly-sur-Seine in 1935. Carrying on a family tradition, Hugues Claude spent much of his youth accompanying his father on painting excursions. His formal training occurred at several prestigious French institutions including the Ecole du Musée du Louvre and the Ecole Normale Supérieure. For many years, he worked as an art professor, while exhibiting regularly in Paris and London. In 1959, he was commissioned by the White House to paint President Eisenhower’s portrait. Like many artists, Hugues Claude was not immune to the more radical movements of his time. However, though he experimented with avant-garde expression for almost two decades, he eventually returned to a more traditional style - finding it difficult to break from the formative training of his family. He maintains a frenetic pace of activity, frequently working well into the night, producing the large canvases that have become his trademark. His distinctive style involves applying colors with great speed straight from the tube, which results in a thick, robust texture – not unlike the Impressionist paintings created by his grandfather’s generation. Today, the artist’s masterful paintings and pastels are collected worldwide, and he continues to be a respected contributor to major art publications.

  • "Fisherman's Wharf - San Francisco" Multi Layer Screen Print on Paper - Signed
    By Gordon Cope
    Located in Soquel, CA
    "Fisherman's Wharf - San Francisco" Multi Layer Screen Print on Paper - Signed Rare and bold Screen Print (Silk Screen) of Fisherman's Wharf 1957 by Gordon Cope (American, 1906-1999). Several boats are docked at Fisherman's Wharf, with buildings directly behind them. In the distance, the hills of San Francisco can be seen meeting a pale blue sky. Of particular note is the skillful representation of the reflections of the boats in the water, and the clever use of grey paper as negative space. Numbered and titled in pencil in the lower left corner "22/100 Fisherman's Wharf - San Francisco" Hand signed and dated in pencil in the lower right corner "Gordon Cope 1957" Titled, signed, and dated "in plate" Presented in a silver colored frame with a double mat. Frame size: 22.5"H x 27"W Image size: 15"H x 20"W Gordon N. Cope (American, 1906-1999) was an educator and painter. Trained in Utah and France, he exhibited his landscape paintings and portraits in the United States and Europe, and he believed music was related to painting. Cope was born on May 14, 1906, in Salt Lake City. He was trained by Utahn artists LeConte Stewart and Lawrence Squires, and at the Académie Julian in Paris, France in 1928. He also studied singing at the Opéra-Comique. Cope taught art at Latter-day Saints University, and he served as the chair of its Department of Art in 1930–1931. He taught at the Mountain School of Art from 1932 to 1938, and he was the director of the Art Barn School in Salt Lake City in 1939–1941. Cope painted Utahn landscapes as well as a portrait of Henry H. Blood, who served as the seventh governor of Utah from 1933 to 1941. Cope exhibited his work in the United States and Europe. According to the Deseret News, Cope "felt that music and painting are closely interrelated, and that the study of one form may be used to complement the appreciation and understanding of the other." Cope died on June 10, 1999, in San Francisco, California. Gordon Nicholson Cope studied with well-known Utah artists A.B. Wright and LeConte Stewart, and became recognized as a major Utah artist of the Great Depression. Cope was born in Salt Lake City in 1906 and spent much of his life in Utah. Cope gained much of his artistic training from diverse environments and influences. Following his training with the previously mentioned artists, Cope spent the next year, 1924, working with Lawrence Squires in Arizona. To expand his knowledge and training, Cope traveled to Europe, where he studied the "old masters" such as Da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. From 1924 to 1928, Cope studied in England, France, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Holland, and worked for a year at the Acadamie Julian, where many early Utah artists...
