Gabriel Spat
Arriving at the Bois de Boulogne, Figural, Park, Paris, France, Watercolor

About the Item

Gabriel Spat was born in Kishinev, Russia, in 1890. Leaving Russia in 1911, he studied at the Academie des Beaux-Arts in Geneva and at the Academie Colarossi and the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere in Paris. After World War I, the artist lived in Paris where he attended the studios of La Ruche, Soutine and Modigliani. Spat spent most of his career in France painting small oil and watercolor figural works and scenes of leisure life at such locales as racetracks, parks and beaches. He immigrated to the United States in 1945, where he took up residence in New York City. The following year, the Carroll Carstairs Gallery in New York held an exhibition of Spat's watercolors of Paris. Several other gallery shows followed in both the United States and Paris.

  • "Venice, 1906, " Italy, Warren W. Sheppard, Realist, Oil, Gondola, Canal
    By Warren W. Sheppard
    Located in Wiscasset, ME
    Marine painter Warren W. Sheppard was born in Greenwich, New Jersey, to a ship captain father who instilled in his son a love and respect for the sea. He studied privately with Mauritz F. H. De Haas and took courses in drawing at Cooper Union in New York City. He traveled along the Mediterranean coast in 1879, sketching the ports of Naples, Gibraltar, Genoa and Messina. Sheppard’s foreign tours continued between 1888 and 1893, with stays in Paris and Venice, where he captured the architecture and busy canals of the Floating City. This fondness for travel also translated to his home country. He sailed along the East Coast from New Jersey to Maine in search of subjects and was an expert navigator, eventually writing the book Practical Navigation. Yacht design became a second career for Sheppard and he participated in a number of sailing competitions himself, most notably winning the New York-to-Bermuda race twice while skipper of the Tamerlane. Sheppard exhibited at the Denver Exposition, Chicago Exposition...
