About the Item

Original oil painting of a busy Paris street with figures and cars under blue skies. Signed by the artist lower left and dated 1954. Condition is very good, no issues or restorations. The painting is in its original gold painted wood frame. Overall framed measurements are 16 by 19 inches. Provenance: A New York City collector. Jean Salabet was a pseudonym used by the Spanish artist Juan Bayón Salado (1913-1995) in the mid-20th century. Juan Bayón Salado (Jean Salabet) was born in Bilbao Spain on June 24, 1913. He settled in Paris between 1950 and 1969 and when using the pseudonym Jean Salabet between 1950 and 1957 he was mainly selling his works through Mr. Reynald Forgeot's gallery initially, and Mr. André Roussard later. Faithful to the Post-Impressionism style, he exhibited in Montmartre in the gallery of rue Norvins, which would become that of Claude Bussière, then at André Roussard) during his long stay in Paris. As a Parisian painter he was mostly known for his colorful cityscapes depicting the times of his generation including the signatures “Bay Sala”, “Bayon” and “Jean Salabet” used by the artist. His work is comparable to those of Jules Herve, Antoine Blanchard and Edouard Cortes. His paintings are a wonderful example of his dedication and passion throughout his of his career. Exemplary depictions of his pieces are city scenes of artist's vendors selling paintings along the view of Notre Dame de Paris, in Paris. People are scattered throughout between the tree-lined Parisian streets. Or like flower vendors walking down the street with a view from the Pont Neuf bridge, the oldest standing bridge crossing the river Seine, with people are scattered throughout with cars depicted in the background. As well wonderful examples of his works the street scenes with bustling cars and the traffic of the people walking along the sidewalks in front of the storefront view of Parisian cafe's as well as wonderful depictions of the most important Parisian monuments and iconic views of the city of Paris. Including in each one of his works a diverse color palette with vibrant details that Juan Bayón Salado (Jean Salabet) captures in a magnificent way of the architecture of Paris so beautifully; you can feel the energy of the day and the excitement. In 1969 he returned to Bilbao and died in the spring of 1995 in his hometown with a career filled with honors and popular success. Biography courtesy of Lilac Gallery.
