Agnes Louis Guillame Lesourd-Beauregard
Roses, Historic Botanical

circa 1850

About the Item

A most popular drawing master, Lesourd-Beauregard exhibited extensively at the Paris Salons, and was awarded a medal in 1842. He is famous for his in depth botanical studies done in oil. This work is not signed by him but was sold originally from a French Estate at auction with several other works by him and has been identified as by his hand. The frame is a Stanford White design frame. He was a student of Gerard van Spaendonck, a renowned fruit and flower painter in France of the early 19th century. In 1840 Lesourd-Beauregard became Professor of Botanical Drawing at the Musée d’Histoire Naturelle, replacing well-known artist and teacher, Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Les Eglantines reveals the strong influence of Gerard van Spaendonk. As one of the few flower painters proficient in oil during this period, Lesourd-Beauregard’s analytical approach to this painting and his superb eye for refined detail produced a lovely and exacting study. Les Eglantines was originally part of a large French estate, from which two other Lesourd-Beauregard paintings were recently sold at auction. The Sotheby’s sale, entitled “Revolution in Art” (January 2002) included two Lesourd-Beauregard oils of similar size, which sold for $16,800 and $21,450 respectively.

Marguerite, Young Girl with Flower Impressionist work
By Hovsep Pushman
Located in Greenwich, CT
In Marguerite the white peonies are a symbol of riches and honor used in Chinese art that profoundly influenced Pushman. This painting is in an originally chosen "Pushman" frame acquired from Barcelona, Spain. There is incredible color in this work and exciting brushwork. It is a true example of Impressionist technique, perhaps some of the finest technically of all American painters at this time. At this time Pushman painted all ethnicities and here we see the unusual subject of a younger sitter. Thus Pushman has emphasized purity and innocence. Panel inside frame measures 32 x 23 and it is signed lower left. As well as it bears the Pushman cataloguing number #47 on verso which attests to its early date in his career. Against these stark white symbols, Pushman paints in sharp contrast a dark backdrop reminiscent of an Oriental tapestry...
