About the Item
Hippolyte Victor Valentin SEBRON
(Caudebec-en-Caux, 1801 – Paris, 1879)
Convent interior
Ink, pen and wash
Signed and dated lower left
27,5 x 20 cm
1839
Pupil of Daguerre from the age of 29, Sebron entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris under the teaching of Cogniet. He exhibited regularly at the Paris Salon between 1831 and 1878.
First employed in the painting of dioramas, he then produced numerous paintings, particularly interiors of churches and ruins.
Like Daguerre, Bouton or Granet, Sebron paints detailed views with contrasting light effects.
Sebron is a traveling artist and he will bring back many views from his multiple journeys in Europe as well as around the Mediterranean and in the United States where he stayed from 1849 to 1855.
Around 1838 he went to the Spanish Basque Country to work. Four of his works are reproduced to illustrate the picturesque voyage to Spain, Portugal and the African coast of Baron Taylor. It is very likely that our drawing dated 1839 represents a convent sketched by Sebron during this trip.

Pauline and Severus (Illustration for the Part II, Scene II of Polyeucte)
Ink, grey wash
Signed lower left
51 x 35 cm
Exhibition: French Watercolour Society, 11th exhibition, Galerie Georges Petit, 8, rue de Sèze, Paris. Catalogue number: 125
This classic drawing but tinted with symbolism is an excellent example of the talents of illustrator of Albert Maignan, a facet of his art that he developed significantly from 1883.
It is one of five watercolours in “black ivory” created by Maignan to illustrate the Polyeucte from Cornelius, a book specially published by Mame Editions (for which Maignan worked a lot) for the Universal Exhibition of 1889. These watercolours were exhibited in 1889 at the famous Galerie Georges Petit (which hosted the 11th exhibition of the French Water Color Society) under No. 124/125/126/127/128 (Maignan exposed another illustrative drawing for “Boileau” under No. 129).
Each drawing illustrating an episode of all five acts of the tragedy.
Our work represents the moment when Pauline (daughter of Felix, Roman senator and governor of the province of Armenia) regains his former suitor Severus (a noble Roman general) and explains that she is now married to Polyeucte (a lord of Armenia) and she can see him again. The scene is set in a garden with a small temple of Vesta, where Pauline has filed an offering; the Pauline confidante named Stratonice, stands at his side, while Severus was accompanied by his servant Fabian. The drawing is captioned by Pauline words to Severus: “Yes I love Severus, and not doing as an excuse”
The book was printed in 800 copies, containing compositions from Maignan etched by Emile Boivin...

Giulio DA MILANO (Nizza, 1895 - Torino, 1990)
Giulio Da Milano was a Giacomo Grosso's disciple and he was very close to the artists that used to patronize La Coupole de Montparnasse (from Kisling to Pascin, from Derain to Vlaminck). He is considered one of most representative exponents of the Turin’s artistic scene in the ‘30s-‘40s, close to the Gruppo dei Sei. His works can be found in the following museums:
