About the Item
Paris, France
by Henri Miloch (1898-1979)
Signed and double sided
Watercolour and gouache painting on artist's paper, unframed
Measures: Sheet 12.5 x 15.5 inches
Nicely executed study over the River Seine in Paris. Painted from a high position on a bridge by the highly regarded painter, Henri Miloch. It is signed front lower right. Charcoal or oil pastel has been used to mark out the buildings and bridge stonework.
This work forms part of a collection we currently hold by Miloch. The Paris scenes seem to have been completed in the immediate post-war years, around 1948 - many were dated. This one is undated. A figure can be seen on the right of the image, leaning over the bridge in pensive thought. Vehicles are parked alongside the houses overlooking the river.
Henri Miloch was born in Trieste (Italy) in 1898 but studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was a member of the Society of French Artists. His life and work was very much centred in Brittany, in north west France, much of his work portrays Breton maritime life in the various ports, and local town observations, especially in the Concarneau area where he worked and exhibited for much of his artistic career. From 1959 he also had a workshop in Tours (Val de Loire).
Condition report:
In good clean order, no tears or creases to the sheet (which is quite stiff watercolour paper). The two upper corners of the sheet have the tiniest edge folds but these would not be seen once matted and framed. Very slight toning in the sky area and to the left lower edge area.
