About the Item
Feeding The Birds
by Louise Alix (French, 1888-1980) *see notes below
provenance stamp to the back
oil painting on board, unframed
measures: 13 high by 15.75 inches wide
condition: overall very good and sound, a few scuffs and marks to the surface and wear to the four corners and surrounding edges all of which are just from age and storage and all help to make up the charm and character of any vintage art work.
A beautiful and original painting from France with a fascinating history.
The paintings of Louise Alix (1888-1980) have largely lain undiscovered for decades, languishing hidden in and old town house in northern France, until very recently. A young couple acquired a town house to make into their home and were absolutely amazed to discover stored in the dusty old attic a whole treasure trove of paintings by Louise Alix - that had been hidden there for literally decades, unseen by the public all this time. Why this would happen is anyone's guess, but we were delighted to be able to 'awaken' these hitherto lost & sleeping treasures and bring them back to life again for the public to enjoy and own themselves. We have several of them and it is a tremendous honor to bring them to you here for sale.
Born in Paris in 1888, Louise Alix (painter, decorative artist of landscapes, still lifes and portraits), studied under Yvonne Delattre and Henri Zo. She exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français between 1926 and 1941, receiving a commendation in 1928, the Bernheim de Villiers prize in 1933, and the silver medal for applied arts in 1935. She also occasionally exhibited her work at the prestigious Salon des Indépendants.
This large body of work we have acquired, which has laid hidden away in an attic all these years, represents a wonderful opportunity for collectors to acquire such beautiful and original French works, all of which have lain undiscovered and unseen; until now.

Neck 'n Neck, original 30x40 equine and figurative landscape
Located in Spring Lake, NJ
And they're off! Hungry for victory, with the full knowledge that their life is about to change forever if they could just place! They've taken care to bond with their horse, not wanting to miss any opportunity for glory! The jockeys have lifted off their saddle to unleash the horse's speed, crop in hand always looking for an advantage! Painted by professional portrait artist Joseph Sundwall of New York this equine and figurative impressionist landscape is packed with excitement and elegance, motion and grit! The artist has used techniques from impressionist to abstraction with carefully placed colors and textures to accentuate the drama that's unfolding in this original equine oil painting.
