French Impressionist Landscape Watercolour Harbour Scene at Dusk

20th Century

About the Item

“Harbour Scene at Dusk" By Maurice Mazeilie (French) Watercolour on paper, unframed Size: 6 x 8.75 inches (Height x Width) Stamped Verso Condition: Good - There is a small mark in the top left corner. Provenance: All the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artist's estate. Description: An engaging original watercolour painting by the 20th-century French Impressionist artist, Maurice Mazeilie. This painting captures a harbour scene at dusk, given the artist’s use of more muted blue and purple tones. Two fishermen can be seen standing on the right, seemingly readying their boat for the following day. 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. We have a vast collection of his paintings and look forward to offering them to you over the coming weeks."

"Viareggio, Italy" Impressionist, Landscape, Watercolor painting, framed
By Nelson H. White
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
"Viareggio, Italy" is an impressionist watercolor painting of a beautiful seaside city just outside the hills of tuscany in Italy. Nelson H. White was born in New London, Connecticut in 1932. White has been surrounded by art and artists from the time he was born. He received his earliest art instruction from his grandfather, Henry Cooke White (1861-1952) and his father Nelson Cooke White (1900-1989), both important American artists. The family lived in Waterford, Connecticut and the elder White had been an early member of the art colony in Old Lyme, Connecticut. Known for his paintings of the Connecticut landscape and shoreline, Henry Cooke White became a teacher to his son, Nelson Cooke White. Living with his parents at the Florence Griswold house in Old Lyme, he met some of the most important and influential artists of the day, Childe Hassam, Will Howe Foote and Harry Hoffman. Later, Nelson White's father began to take his family to summer on Shelter Island and became friendly with many of the artists of the Peconic colony such as Irving Wiles, an important American impressionist. After graduating from the Tabor Academy in Marion, Massachusetts in 1951, Nelson H. White began to study at Mitchell College in Connecticut but left to pursue studies in the violin, musical theory and composition. At this time, he began to spend more time studying art with his father and grandfather. By 1955, Nelson H. White had decided to devote himself to a career as a painter and traveled to Florence, Italy to become an apprentice to Pietro Annigoni, the world-renowned Florentine master. Within two years, the young White had won two awards for his work. While in Florence he also studied with the great Italian teacher, Nerina Simi. Today, White divides his time between the United States and Florence. Although he has received instruction from some very important artists, White's work is highly individual. He paints with great spirit. Upon seeing his work one quickly senses White’s great love for nature and the outdoors. Through his eyes we are able to view and interpret nature in an intimate manner. Whether Nelson H. White is painting the Connecticut shore...
