André Cottavoz
St. Marco, Venice Post Impressionist

1961

About the Item

A visually interesting and expressive work done in thick impastic paint and expressive brushwork. Artist is internationally collected, especially in Japan! Cottavoz painted lively scenes of Venice and France and other areas of Europe in a style formed after the Post-Impressionist movement where he was influenced by the work of Van Gogh and Chaim Soutine. This painting has a wonderful color palette with the turquoise and yellow colors being very attractive. Hanging in a room, the play of impasto of the paint is attractive and makes the work a bit different and eye catching. The frame was designed for the piece and is a high quality frame custom made, 22 karat silvered leaf on the fron bevel. A tan lacquer to the panel which has some patina. It is signed in the lower right. Playful - expressive and alot of character. He is represented at the prestigious Galerie Tamenaga, as the owner of this gallery loved the work of this artist. 10 3/4 x 14 inches Framed: 19 x 22 1/4 inches Signed and dated lower right: Cottavoz ‘61 Signed, titled and dated on verso: St. Marco / Cottavoz / 1961

Woman, Yellow Shawl and Fan
Located in Greenwich, CT
An impressive and masterful depiction of a young woman with a fan. An American artist who studied and traveled in Europe and painted this painting before his return. It has its original frame which is magnificent. The frame has been regilded in th past 10 years. Vinton was abroad in the 1880s. The sitter gazes coyly over her fan in a gesture that ladies and gentleman of fin-de-siècle Europe would have understood to mean “wait for me,” and perhaps indicating her interest in a potential suitor. Vinton embarked on several trips to Europe—to Spain in 1882 with William Merritt Chase and Robert Blum, and to several different countries in 1888 following his marriage—which provided inspiration for a renewed style and subject matter. While in Spain with Chase and Blum, the three artists visited Madrid and Toledo; there, Vinton studied the masterfully tenebrous portraits of Velázquez, an influence that can be seen in Portrait with Yellow Shawl...
