About the Item

JEAN SOUVERBIE (1891-1981) LES TROIS GRACES Signed lower right PROVENANCE Private Collection Paisnel Gallery, London Private Collection Souverbie painted compositions of figures, especially female figures, and of nudes, which resembled Picasso’s contemporary ‘Pompeiian’ figures. However, the influence of Poussin gave his figures a monumental constructive equilibrium, and his brush with the Nabis and Fauvism lent colour to his version of Cubism. Jean Souverbie was initially inspired by Poussin and by the Roman ruins in Provence. He was then directly influenced by the Nabis, although his use of colour aligned him with Fauvism. He discovered Cubism in around 1920 through the work of Georges Braque, who influenced his still-lifes. He saw in Cubism the possibility of a renewal of classical art.

"Terpsichore II" by Grégoire Mathias – Muse of Dance in Diachronic Cubism
Located in PÉRIGUEUX, FR
Terpsichore, Muse de la Danse II Acrylic on Canvas 46 x 38 cm Terpsichore, Muse de la Danse II by Grégoire Mathias captures the grace and vitality of Terpsichore, the ancient Greek muse of dance. Rendered in his signature Diachronic Cubism, Mathias skillfully weaves multiple moments of movement into a single harmonious composition. The figures, deconstructed into geometric forms, evoke rhythm and elegance, embodying the spirit of dance. The muted tones of earthy golds and greys, complemented by dynamic lines and subtle textures, lend the painting both timelessness and modernity. This piece is a testament to Mathias’s ability to merge classical inspiration with a contemporary cubist approach, bringing the muse of dance vividly to life. Perfect For: Art collectors drawn to works inspired by mythology, admirers of cubist reinterpretations, and those who seek paintings that celebrate rhythm, movement, and cultural depth. Terpsichore, Muse de la Danse II is a captivating addition to any collection or interior space that celebrates both tradition and innovation. Keywords: Diachronic Cubism, Greek mythology art...
