About the Item
Ramon Dilley
1933 - Spanish
Élégantes à Deauville
Signed “Dilley 91” (lower right)
Signed and titled “Ramon Dilley / Elegantes a Deauville” (en verso)
Oil on board laid on canvas
A vivid representation of Art Deco splendor,Élégantes à Deauville showcases the Art Deco era’s luxurious tranquility and stylish elegance. Two fashionably dressed women, embracing the quintessential style of 1920s flappers, look upon a tranquil seascape. The scene, likely set at Deauville, Normandy, one of the most exclusive seaside resorts in France, is richly detailed with a costume-changing tent, the French flag, a wooden beach chair and a stately sailboat on the distant horizon. This painting, adorned with Dilley’s characteristic blooming rhododendrons, captures the enchanting serenity of the French coast.
Dilley's subjects and techniques evoke the legacy of notable painters such as Kees van Dongen and Jean-Pierre Cassigneul, particularly through his vibrant, saturated palette and figure elongation. However, Dilley's creations uniquely capture a vanished era of elegance and sophistication. Marrying modernity with timelessness, his paintings stand as some of the most exemplary in their category.
Born Gomez Ramon y Romero in Madrid in 1933, Dilley's family relocated to France in 1936, fleeing the Spanish Civil War. France became his lifelong home, where he drew inspiration from the French avant-garde and the celebrity milieu. Under sculptor Paul Delmondo's guidance, he entered the École du Louvre, further refining his considerable talent. In the 1960s, at the suggestion of art historian and auctioneer Maurice Rheims, he adopted the name "Dilley." His works, celebrated for blending old-world allure with contemporary fashion, are highly sought after, gracing numerous prestigious private collections globally, including those of the Shah of Iran, Prince Rainier of Monaco and Valery Giscard d'Estaing.

- Dimanche au Champ de Course (Deauville) (Sunday at the Racetrack)By Hughes Claude PissarroLocated in New Orleans, LAHugues Claude Pissarro b.1935 French Dimanche au champ de course (Deauville) (Sunday at the Racetrack) Signed “H. Claude Pissarro” (lower left) Pastel on card French artist Hugues Claude Pissarro offers a unique perspective of the racetrack in Deauville in this exceptional pastel. The spectators are as much his subject as the sport in this artistic tribute to a leisurely Sunday at the tracks. Following the impressionist tradition of his father and grandfather before him, Pissarro infuses this pastel with dynamic light and vibrant colors. Entitled Dimanche au Champ de Course (Deauville), it showcases the artist's highly distinctive and sophisticated style. Hailing from a long lineage of painters, Pissarro's artistic talents were cultivated at an early age. He exhibited his first works at the young age of 14 and later studied in Paris at the École du Louvre and École Normale Supérieure. A 1959 White House commission to paint the portrait of President...Category
