L V Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950) Portrait of a young woman, 1928, oval pastel
Located in Paris, FR
Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scevola (1871-1950)
Portrait of a young woman
Pastel on paper
38 x 28 cm (oval)
Framed under glass in a vintage framing : 45 x 35 cm
A label on the back "1928 Portrait de femme Etude au pastel de Guirand de Scévola" (see photographs please)
This pastel study is of course not signed, as the label on the back of the frame gives its attribution to Guirand de Scévola and, equally interestingly, the date 1928, but in fact the artist's style and execution are immediately recognisable without the need for a signature.
This type of woman with a bun is typical of the models the artist loved. Her mysterious air recalls his Symbolist period, and pastel is hisr preferred medium because it lends itself to all the characteristics typical of his art.
Lucien-Victor Guirand de Scévola ( 1871 – 1950) was a French painter.
He was student of Fernand Cormon and Pierre Dupuis...

ORTHOPHONIC EVENING
By Walt Kuhn
Located in Portland, ME
Kuhn, Walt (American, 1877-1949). ORTHOPHONIC EVENING. Drawing,
ink and watercolor, 1928. Titled, signed and dated within the
image, in ink, and further inscribed with the copyright symbol (c
in a circle) and signed and dated 1937, in pencil, presumably to
preserve reproduction and publication rights. 9 1/2 x 15 1/2
inches, plus margins of about 1/2 inch. In excellent condition.
The "Orthophonic Victrola," introduced in 1925, was the first
electric record player sold commercially. In the drawing it is
seen at the left, with the host changing a record. The rest of
the drawing reveals that listening to music was not the primary
activity of the "orthophonic evening."
The following is quoted from The Pillips Collection's biography
of Kuhn:
Walt Kuhn is remembered as an early promoter of modern art in
America. He was not only a well-known painter, but also a
cartoonist, sculptor, printmaker, writer, teacher, and producer
of vaudeville shows. Born in 1877, Kuhn grew up in Brooklyn,
where he received his education in private schools until he was
sixteen. In 1899 he ventured to San Francisco to work as a
cartoonist for The Wasp, a political and literary weekly. In 1901
Kuhn traveled to Europe for formal art training at the Académie
Colarossi in Paris and later at the Munich Academy. Returning to
New York in 1903, he established a studio in Manhattan and helped
arrange the 1910 Exhibition of Independent Artists. He was a
founding member and officer of the Association of American
Painters and Sculptors, the organization responsible for mounting
the Armory Show of 1913, and in this role traveled through Europe
in 1912 looking at art and helping to select works to be
exhibited. Seeing paintings by Cézanne, Derain, Dufy, Pascin, and
the cubists affected his style, and throughout the teens and
early twenties Kuhn experimented with fauve colors, using blocks
of color akin to Cézanne and with cubist space, integrating
abstracted forms into the space of the picture plane. Finally, he
developed his own painting style characterized by solid,
sculptural depictions of single figures.
Kuhn had his first solo show in 1910 at the Madison Gallery...

A ca. 1928 Drawing of a Dapper Man with a Pint Glass by Artist Francis Chapin
Located in Chicago, IL
A ca. 1928 charcoal on paper drawing of a dapper man with a pint glass by artist Francis Chapin.
Image size: 12" x 9". Matted size: 14" x 18". Provenance: Estate of the artist.
Francis Chapin, affectionately called the “Dean of Chicago Painters” by his colleagues, was one of the city’s most popular and celebrated painters in his day. Born at the dawn of the 20th Century in Bristolville, Ohio, Chapin graduated from Washington & Jefferson College near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania before enrolling at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1922. He would set down deep roots at the Art Institute of Chicago, exhibiting there over 31 times between 1926 and 1951. In 1927 Chapin won the prestigious Bryan Lathrop Fellowship from the Art Institute – a prize that funded the artist’s yearlong study trip to Europe. Upon his return to the United States, Chapin decided to remain in Chicago, noting the freedom Chicago artists have in developing independently of the pressure to conform to pre-existing molds (as was experienced by artists in New York, for example). Chapin became a popular instructor at the Art Institute, teaching there from 1929 to 1947 and at the Art Institute’s summer art school in Saugatuck, Michigan (now called Oxbow) between 1934 – 1938 (he was the director of the school from 1941-1945). Chapin’s contemporaries among Chicago’s artists included such luminaries as Ivan Le Lorraine Albright...

Wettersteinkamm - The blue of the mountains -
Located in Berlin, DE
Adalbert Holzer (1881 Munich - 1966 Munich). Wettersteinkamm. Watercolour, 29 x 34.5 cm (visible size), 37.5 x 43 cm (frame), signed and dated at lower right 'ADALBERT HOLZER [19]23'.
Framed behind glass. Frame shows signs of wear.
- The blue of the mountains -
About the artwork
The Wetterstein ridge is revealed to the viewer from a gentle, snow-covered hill. In contrast to conventional depictions of mountains, the painting is composed entirely of shades of blue, which condense into the blue-grey of the rock or fade into the white of the snow. As a complementary colour to the blue, Holzer virtuously activates the ochre ground. The uniform yet exciting polarity of the colours emphasises the massive majesty of the mountains and at the same time underlines the special character of the Wetterstein ridge. Holzer transferred the translucency of glass painting, in which he was originally trained, to watercolour and developed a pictorial language related to the art of Ferdinand Hodler, which earned him the nickname 'Master of Blue' and led to the appreciation of his watercolours in particular.
About the artist
After an apprenticeship as a stained glass painter at the Kunstgewerbeschule, Adalbert Holzer studied at the Munich Art Academy under Carl von Marr...
