Henri Royer
Large Drawing, Study Of Dancers

Circa 1900

About the Item

Henri ROYER Nancy 1869 - 1938 Paris Study of dancers Sanguine pastel and charcoal on cream white paper Circa 1900-1910 Unsigned 47 x 62.5 cm sheet 67 x 83 cm cm frame Provenance: Estate of the artist's family Painter, pastellist, portraitist, genre painter and landscaper, he was born in 1869 in Nancy and died in Neuilly-sur-Seine in 1938. After the Beaux-Arts, Henri Royer attended, in 1890, at the Académie Julian, the studios of Jules Joseph Lefebvre, Théodore Devilly and Flameng. In 1894, he exhibited numerous works at the Galerie des Artistes Modernes in Paris. He then traveled to America and toured Europe before settling permanently in Brittany, a region that fascinated him. His art oscillates between naturalism and academicism without falling into a worldly ease that would surely have allowed him - thanks to his talents as a portraitist - to become famous like many painters of the Belle Époque. An excellent draftsman and pastellist, his technical virtuosity recalls that of Émile Friant, an artist of whom he was a close friend.
