Stephane Lovighi-Bourgogne
Expressionist Gouache and Watercolour Study for 'Alexander and His Army'.

1990s

About the Item

French late 20th century watercolour and gouache study for the series 'Alexander and His Army' by Stephane Lovighi-Bourgogne. Presented in plain wood frame. A strong and forceful design for one of his larger canvases, a limited yet successful colour palette. Stéphane Lovighi-Bourgogne is a French self-taught painter. Born in Dijon in 1968, he lives in the south of France. At the start of his career, he painted the people he met. His technique was inspired by twentieth-century artists such as Chaïm Soutine, Lucian Freud and Picasso. Then, in flight from a reality punctuated by suffering, he created a world born of his dreams, his fantasies and his fears. His style has gradually become identified as a new genre, the « transfigurative ». His sensitivity is apparent to the viewer who alone can judge the artist's expression of emotions. At times, painting represents an outlet for him and at times it is introspective, but it has certainly become indispensable to his life. Love for others, love of others — that is what he paints.

Chinatown, San Francisco
By Edward Wilson Currier
Located in London, GB
'Chinatown, San Francisco', gouache on fine art paper, by Edward Wilson Currier (1903). Spofford Alley in San Francisco's Chinatown is best known for an address (number 36) where Dr. Sun Yat-Sen plotted the overthrow of China's last dynasty. During Prohibition, it was the site of turf battles over local bootlegging and protection rackets. Today it is lined with seniors' community centres. However, the quiet alley livens up in the evenings when a Chinese orchestra strikes up a tune, mah-jongg games begin with a cascade of clicking tiles, and barbers and florists use the pretence of sweeping their doorsteps to gossip. In this artist's depiction, a man smokes a long-stemmed Chinese pipe under the awning and colourful lanterns hanging from the wooden supports while a child looks on. The artwork is interesting from several standpoints including architectural, cultural and historical. Shortly after this work was painted, the neighbourhood was completely destroyed in the 1906 earthquake that levelled most of the city. From 1910 to 1940, Chinese immigrants were detained at the Angel Island...
