About the Item

Title: "Boats in a Dry Bay with Figure Tending to Rigging" Artist: Maurice Mazeilie (French) Medium: Watercolour on paper, unframed Size: 7 x 10 inches (Height x Width) Signed: Yes, on the back of the painting Stamped Verso: Yes Condition: The painting is in good and sound condition - there is some staining on the painting that appears to be from coffee. Provenance: All the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artist's estate. Description: A vibrant original watercolour painting by the 20th-century French Impressionist artist, Maurice Mazeilie. This painting depicts several boats in a dry bay at low tide, with one figure in orange on the boat, possibly preparing it for sailing once the tide comes in or performing maintenance. The soft blues and greys of the sky contrast beautifully with the warm earthy tones of the foreground, giving a sense of calm yet industrious coastal life. Mazeilie’s characteristic loose brushwork adds life and energy to the scene. Maurice Mazeilie (French, 1924 - 2021): Mazeilie lived and worked in Montmartre, where he had a studio on the famous Place du Tertre. Place du Tertre, located just a stone’s throw away from the Basilica of Sacré-Cœur, is known for its vibrant community of artists and is considered one of the key locations in Montmartre's artistic history. Since the late 19th century, Montmartre has been a haven for artists, housing greats like Picasso and Modigliani, and providing inspiration with its scenic streets and bustling cafés. Place du Tertre and Montmartre Art Scene: Historical Significance: Place du Tertre became known as an artist's hub during the Belle Époque era, with painters such as Toulouse-Lautrec, Renoir, and Degas frequenting the area. By the 20th century, it became synonymous with art and creativity. Artist Colony: The square remains one of the few places in Paris where artists can publicly display and sell their works directly to tourists and collectors, keeping the artistic tradition alive. Mazeilie's Legacy: His works often depict urban and coastal landscapes. He had a love for Montmartre, Paris, and the Brittany coastline, where he also maintained a studio. His impressionistic style and vibrant scenes reflect his dedication to portraying the world around him. This piece provides a glimpse into Mazeilie’s unique ability to capture the spirit of coastal life and architecture. We have a vast collection of his paintings and look forward to offering them to you over the coming weeks.
