Tuscan Figurative Genre Scene painting 20th century oil on canvas

20th

About the Item

The artist of this painting is unknown but it can be ascribe to a Tuscan movement of the 20th century inspired by 19th century art like Verismo (as we can deduce by the clean and not artificial composition of the genre scene chosen as the subject) and Macchiaioli (as we gather by the painting manner). It represents a joyful moment among some children (three boys and a girl) who are in front of a fountain to take water, as we can see by the several baskets that they are holding. By the color of the sky, by the palette chosen to render the light atmosphere and by their clothes, it's possible to assume that it is a summertime or late spring afternoon. The sizes of the painting, oil on canvas, with the frame is 52 x 41.5 cm.

  • Japan Japanese Garden by French naive outsider folk art primitive artist, 1975
    Located in Norwich, GB
    A perfect painting for lovers of Japan and those of primitive/naive outside art. It is a work by an internatoanlly noted extraordinary artist with an extraordinary life. Maurice LOIRAND (1922-2008) is born into a working class family in Brittany, near the Atlantic coast coast in France. He starts working as a skilled labourer in the shipyards aged 15. Aged 20, when the Nazis start to occupy the country, he joins the Resistance movement, where he meets and befriends thinkers, painters and poets. He is thus introduced to an artistic and intellectual universe far removed from the world of his origins. Loirand finds himself drawn to art, and soon dedicates all his free time to learn how to paint. Completely self taught, he soon begins to exhibit his pictures alongside high level artists. He moves to Paris in the 1950s, and - although still working as a technician - paints all night. He finally becomes a full time artist in 1968. International travel and a multitude of exhibitions follow. He exhibits in Brazil, Argentina, and with Jean Tiroche Gallery in New York, among others. His work is now shown alongside works by Leger, Matisse and Picasso. The Collector's Guild New York Ltd commissions Maurice Loirand for several works of lithographic art. Loirand discovers Japan in the early 1970s, and decides to stay for 18 years. He marries Kazué SHIMOTORI, a Japanese poet...
