French Modernist Cubist Painting Figures in a Village

About the Item

Figures in a Village by Maurice Mazeilie (French, 1924-2021) watercolor painting on artist paper, unframed unsigned stamped verso Gentle composition of a rural village scene with figures by a house, Mazeilie's favoured use of red for a figure is used again here to good effect. painting: 14.75 inches x 10.9 inches A delightful original painting by the 20th century French Impressionist artist, Maurice Mazeilie. The painting has excellent provenance having come from the artists estate sale in Paris. Mazeilie lived and worked in Montmartre, with a studio on the famous Place du Tertre. His love of the coast led him to also maintain a studio on the Brittany coastline. Born in Clichy, Hauts-de-Seine, Paris in early 1924, Mazeilie painted coastal scenes in Brittany, Parisian landscapes and architecture, Venetian Cityscapes, and portraiture. He moved to the USA in 1957, returning to France briefly for a few months in 1958, then arriving back in early 1959 to settle in San Diego California where he applied for naturalisation and became a longstanding figure in the artist's centre at Spanish Village in San Diego between approximately 1967-1974. He had married in San Diego in 1964. In the late 1970's he returned to France and continued to paint and sketch right up to 2019 (some of his later work is dated). Mazeilie's gentle, impressionist style fits into any interior environment, contemporary or classic. Condition report: The painting is in good and sound condition, clean.

  • Alpine Landscape Oil Painting with Tyrolian Mountain Village
    Located in Berghuelen, DE
    Alpine Landscape Oil Painting with Tyrolian Mountain Village A large vintage oil painting depicting an Alpine landscape with Tyrolian mountain village. Painted on cardboard with pastell colors. Framed with antique decorative gilded frame. On the left base signed by the artist "K. Votteler". Painted in the area of Tyrol or south Germany, early 20th century. A high quality antique oil painting which will highlight your Alpine cabin wall decoration. The Biedermeier period runs parallel to the Romantic period and both are characterized by similar features. Domesticity, closeness to nature, folksiness and need for harmony are buzzwords of this time. The focus is on the simple, the conservative and the tried and tested. There is little experimentation and more observation and enjoyment. The art style is kept very realistic and shows great similarity to photography. Domestic idyllic representations, beautiful landscape and impressive portraits are the most popular topics for oil paintings...
