About the Item

Annie French was part of the Glasgow Girls group of artists and illustrators who worked in a delicate, feminine, and detailed Art Nouveau and Pre-Raphaelite style. This work, "Flora," is masterfully rendered and decorated with sumptuous floral patterns in the most detailed way. It is signed twice in the upper right quadrant. The mat has a hand-painted decorative border. The work presents better in person, and the viewer can marvel at the minute detail. The Video is overexposed and light and not representative of color. Use still images for value and color. Framed under glass - 16 3/4 x 15 in. Sold Christie's, Edinburgh, October 28, 2004, Lot 176. The Collection of Ann Getty. The Fine Art Society Ltd., London.

Paul Berthon - Sarah Bernhardt La Princesse Lointaine " The Faraway Princess "
By Paul Berthon
Located in PARIS, FR
Paul Emile Berthon ( 1872- 1909 ), was a French decorative artist. He began studying painting in Villefranche. From 1893, he moved to Paris, where he attended the École normale d'enseignement du dessin. Among the courses taken at the time, those of the professor of decorative art Eugène Grasset had the greatest impact on him. The first works of Paul Berthon (around 1896) show a style close to that of Grasset. By freeing himself from the style of his master, his own style develops based on a palette of autumnal pastels with sharp lines and contours. This is his most famous lithograph, a portrait of Sarah Bernhardt in the title role of "La Princesse Lointaine...
