Paul Henry Bony
S. Thérèse - Original Tempera by Paul Bony - 1932

1932

About the Item

S. Thérèse is a small and meaningful artwork realized by Paul Bony, a famous French artist active especially in the middle of the last century. The artwork is painted on branded paper “INGRES” and is in excellent conditions. The initials “R.B.” are painted on the lower right. On the higher left of the back, in pencil, there is the partially unreadable writing “Ht. Relief (ill.) / S. Therese”. Still on the lower back, the initials “M.B.” and the date “20 février 1932”. The artist Paul Bony was a painter and glassmaker. His wife was Adeline (1917-1998), an artist as well, daughter of Jean Hébert-Stevens and Pauline Peugniez, who placed glass art at the service of figurative art. In 1944, he inherited the company of the parents-in-law. He drew glass windows for sacred places and curated the realization of artistic glass windows for major French artists like Rouault, Matisse, and Chagall. He was an expert landscape painter, focusing especially on the views of Normandy, where he chose to live with his wife. This small drawing, showing the silhouette of St. Therese, could be the study for a glass window with high relief. It is a beautiful colorful study, pleasant and precious, as well as an important testimony of glass art in the 1930s.
