About the Item

"Femme Rousse Sur Fond Bleu" is an original oil on canvas impressionistic portrait of a woman by Albert Bertalan. A red-headed lady sits with her hand pressed upon her cheek thoughtfully thinking in front of a blue background. The painting is framed with an ornate gold frame. From the late 19th century until World War Two, Paris was the center of the art world. Artists and intellectuals from around the globe descended on Paris, drawn by the atmosphere of creative freedom established by the French Impressionists. Because of the Impressionists’ innovations the direction of art had changed forever, the times were ripe for another Renaissance. The School of Paris, as this broad-based group of artists are referred to embodied the spirit of modernism. Albert Bertalan was born on September 21, 1899 in Jaszbereny, Hungary. He is known for painting compositions of figures in unique environments, including women by the sea, among other similar subject matters. He studied at the Nagybanyai Art School under some of the most important Hungarian artists, including Ivànyi Grünwald, Adolf Fényes, and Istàn Réti. He received a solo exhibition in Nuremberg and exhibited regularly at the Budapest Gallery of Pal Lazlo. In 1924 he moved to Paris where he had his first exhibition in 1925. His Parisian Salon exhibitions include portrait entries in the Salon des Indépendants in 1926 and 1930, at the Salon d’Automne in 1926, and at the Salon des Tuileries in 1930. In 1928 he won the Szinyei prize. His paintings while in Paris were very expressionistic having incorporated composition, brush technique and a unique vision, all of which now make his work very identifiable. His work develops through numerous distinctive phases: Impressionistic, Cezannian, Matissean, Cubistic and Modernist.

"Sous la Tonnelle", Gerard Valtier, Oil/Canvas, French Impressionist, 29x24 in.
By Gerard Valtier
Located in Dallas, TX
"Sous la Tonnelle" by Gerard Valtier is an original oil on canvas that measures 28x23 inches. This impressionistic painting has an array of bright colors to create a fun and musical image. In a park with orange and pink flowers, a blue and white striped tent is pitched for a party. Many appreciate the energetic work of the brush to describe the foliage or the luminous backgrounds irradiated with numerous vibrant colors. Seething with colors, sparkling, blazing, molten gold: the whole mystery of Gerard Valtier’s painting lies in the working of this colorful living chemistry, where the thickening cover of the glaze catches the reflections of the light, which progressively becomes incandescent. The contrasting blue and yellow, basically naturalistic colors - characteristic of the impressionist palette - create a feeling of bedazzlement which send out their own light, directly imitating the natural effects of light itself. Thus, the property of the color, the interaction of colors as well as their power to create some light, definitely are the basis of Valtier’s work. The artist can paint everything: barges along the quay, the busy crowds, Venice and its carnival, the bride and her procession - his whole painting is under the sign of the feast. Unlike Renoir or Cezanne, Valtier does not hesitate to use black as a true color, not one designed to soften or drain the pure color, as in the shadows. One will also appreciate the energetic work of the brush to describe the foliage or the luminous backgrounds irradiated with numerous vibrant colors. Valtier has had exhibitions throughout the world and has received many awards. He paints from his studio in Arles, France. He is listed in Mayers, Akoun, La Cote des Peinteres, Bordas International, and Financial Art.
