About the Item
Joseph Louis François Lépine (1867-1943) "Painter at the easel." Oil painting on canvas applied to cardboard signed lower left. Early 20th century French postimpressionist school.
Joseph Lépine was a French postimpressionist painter and a great colorist. Born in Rochefort, he completed his early studies in 1892. His teacher was Louis Cabié, a disciple of the Barbizon School of Bordeaux, who tried in vain to dissuade the young artist from turning to the Impressionist movement in vogue in Paris. Joseph Lépine's first paintings were immediately noticed in 1894 and exhibited by the Société des Amis des Arts de Bordeaux.
In 1897, Joseph Lépine moved to Paris, where his early works were accepted at the Salon de la Nationale des Beaux-Arts in 1897 and 1898. In the early years of the 20th century, he became an associate member of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts and a member of the Salon des Indépendants in Paris, where he was in close contact with Gromaire, Matisse, Guérin, Dunoyer de Segonzac, and, above all, Paul Signac, with whom he would later become very close.
Lépine's painting is powerful, with vivid colors and strong contrasts. His brushstrokes, similar to those of Gustave Loiseau, are composed of broad, juxtaposed strokes. Its garish yellows contrast with the shadows whose edges are tinged with purple, as advocated by Signac. His Neo-Impressionist technique of tonal division prompted the French government to purchase his first painting at the 1908 Salon des Indépendants (now at the Musée de Menton). In 1908 and 1909 he was invited to participate in the first two Allied Artist's Association Salons at the Royal Albert Hall in London. From 1910 onward, Joseph Lépine received numerous awards from the state and major Parisian salons, as well as commissions from national museums. From 1920 onward, Lépine frequented Maurice Denis and his contrasts gave way to lighter colors and subtle, almost pointillist brushstrokes. World War I dispersed the artist's contacts, and Lépine continued his career with only one friend, Paul Signac. His painting became more evanescent, bordering on abstraction. In 1933 à Bordeaux success caught up with him, and around him gathered numerous disciples and pupils fascinated by his style; it was here that the painter Anders Osterlind joined him and convinced him to return to Paris, introducing him to the Salon des Tuileries and Madame Bourdon's Gallery, where he became a permanent painter along with Georges d'Espagnat, Othon Friesz and Abel Bertram.
Our painting belongs to his Parisian comeback, the 1930s, and to a style so powerful that it still manages to mix color with evanescence. The subject portrayed, a young painter on the Place du Tertre in Montmarte, perhaps one of his students, is unusual but well established in his style.
In its beautiful setting Montmartre original.

He was born in 1951. Under the direction of the teacher Pedro Bermejo, he began his artistic career, quickly standing out and observing in his works an unusual mastery of drawing.
A highly mature painter who has known how to stop time in all his works. His themes are preferably costumbrist, although in his work it is usual to see 18th century themes, with horse carriages, hats, umbrellas and still lifes.
