About the Item

J. Blot (France, 20th Century). This gouache painting features a still-life execution of exotic fishes in a very typical Mid-Century-Modern 1950s design style., Bursting with vintage charm and design-forward appeal, this vibrant gouache painting is a delightful still life of exotic fish rendered in the bold, stylized manner of 1950s Mid-Century Modernism. Although unsigned, this work originates directly from the studio estate of French artist J. Blot (20th Century), acquired alongside several authenticated, signed pieces, thereby affirming its provenance and artistic identity. The painting is framed in an elegant, ornate contemporary wood frame with a bronze and dark turquoise marble pattern, accented by a white liner and a glass protection. Although unsigned, this work is by J. Blot. We purchased it, with other signed works from the painter's studio estate. Dimensions: With frame: 19.50 in wide (49.5 cm) by 16.13 in high (41 cm).

John Hatch American Cubist Abstract Oil Painting 1950's Mid C Fantasy Abstract
By John W. Hatch
Located in Buffalo, NY
An original oil on board painting by American modernist John W. Hatch. This incredible cubist painting was created in the 1950's. Estate stamped on the reverse. The painting comes housed in a modern black frame presentation. John Woodsum Hatch 1919-1998 During his fifty-year career as an artist, John Woodsum Hatch explored the people, the landscape, and the seascape around him. From his extensive travels to his years in New Hampshire, he developed a body of work that captures a sense of place. Through watercolor, ink and sand, he depicted the grandeur of the White Mountains. The crisp light and distinct topography of the Isles of Shoals and Great Bay Estuary are precisely and clearly documented in acrylic and tempera paintings. His ability to convey the sheer scale and longevity of the mountains and sea, and by comparison the fleeting nature of human life, conveys in a not-so-subtle way that the natural environment is to be revered and preserved. Hatch took his first teaching job at the University of New Hampshire in 1949, the same year he graduated from Yale University. He never left. A former student, Sam Cady, described his contributions: “He was a wonderful mix of jokester and sage. A teacher who obviously loved people, loved teaching, and had a great gift for it.” After retiring in 1985, he was made an honorary Professor Emeritus at UNH. Hatch contributed to New Hampshire's cultural life in three areas: his teaching, his art, and his community service. His effectiveness in these three areas can be traced his commitment to give something of himself to help others. Many artists teach by necessity and resent it as a drain on their creative energies but Hatch found his greatest fulfillment from a combination of teaching, making art, and being deeply involved with his community as an art historian and as an environmentalist. Hatch’s work can be seen in numerous public collections, including: the Addison Gallery of American Art; DeCordova Museum; Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts; State of New Hampshire's Living Treasures Collection, and the Portland Museum of Art in Maine. John Woodsum Hatch, New Hampshire's 1997 Living Treasure Award recipient, died on August 6, 1998, at the age of 78. Hatch was a draftsman, an artist and a muralist. His works can be found in public and private collections throughout the region. He exhibited at the New Hampshire Art...
