Pierre Henry (1924 - 2015)
Hand signed and dated '66 lower right.
Dimensions: (Frame) H 29.25" x W 13.25" ; (Painting) H 23.75" x W 8" Intentionally crackled paint finish.
Pierre-Henry sociétaire des grands Salons à Paris et vice-président de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts.
PIerre Henry studied painting, the art of fresco and of etching in the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts, in Paris. Since 1950, his first exhibition, his talent led him to become one of the leaders of the French figurative expressionist school. He was of the period of Jean jansem and Pierre Serrier andBernard Buffet
"I believe that the artists, painters, poets, and musicians, are our society’s prophets, its preachers. They bear witness to their anguish face to face with humanity in total confusion, which feels and knows it is threatened.
At first smooth, the painting slowly acquires reliefs. The lacquer color is dazzling and the backgrounds alone make up genuine paintings. That especially sumptuous texture emphasizes their graphic precision.
Smooth paint, flattened out, provides a lacquered effect, and brings to mind the great Flemish masters’ works.
Of the generation of great post war French artists he has shown with Jean Pierre Alaux, Lucien Philippe Moretti, Edouard Pignon, Henri Michaux, Guy Cambier, Jean Fusaro, Mara Tran Long, Claude Mourier, Herick Michaud, Tony Buller
French figurative expressionism painter. Pierre Clément Didier Henry is a member of the major Salons in Paris and vice-president of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts.
In his father Clément Henry's bakery, located rue Saint-Denis in Paris, Pierre-Henry had developed the habit of drawing. Noticed by the painter Martin Roch who introduced him to André Marchand, Gertrude Stein and the writer Blaise Cendrars, this made him want to study painting, the art of frescoes and engraving.
Pierre-Henry took courses at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts in Paris and studied painting at the Poujon workshop who, appointed director of the Casa de Velázquez, left the workshop to Jean Dupas.
He was notably a friend of the painters Maurice Boitel , Daniel du Janerand , Jean-Pierre Alaux , and André Sablé , of the Young Painting of the New School of Paris .
His favorite themes are love, war, time, life, death constantly mixed together, destiny, as well as still lifes. His works are generally very colorful. He is renowned as one of the leaders of the contemporary color figurative school. Patrice de La Perrière of the magazine Univers des Arts, defined him as an artist who poses “a look dressed in poetic inventions”.

Mixed Media Floral Oil Painting Collage Bouquet of Flowers
By Jacques Lamy
Located in Surfside, FL
Born in Paris in 1946 and raised in the heart of an idyllic French countryside near the Loire Valley, Jacques Lamy began painting at a very early age. Jacques completed his formal artistic training at the prestigious Ecole Nationale Superieur des Arts Decoratifs (Paris) in 1971. While there, he received the highest peer recognition in European Arts; the coveted Prix de Rome award for painting.
Jacques Lamy’s career as an artist, designer and art teacher took him from his native France to life abroad in Spain, Africa, and the United States. His broad artistic interests and his classic training in art and design have enabled him to enjoy a wide variety of artistic experiences from designing furniture, lamps, tapestries, and elegant garden statuary to creating large scale murals for public viewing and enjoyment.
in addition to his renowned mural work, Jacques received international recognition for his decorative fresco paintings.
Jacques personal artistic style is very much a melding of old and new – a merging of a classically trained artist with a modern artistic vision. The medium is multi-media and the composition has a modern, abstract quality but the Old World training in design and composition lends the whole an air of classical grace. Examples can be seen in his studio-gallery in Dallas, Texas.

Leonard Raven-Hill (1867-1942)
Still Life of Flowers II
Oil on canvas
24 x 19 cm
In a handsome frame.
Signed lower left 'L RavenHill'.
A handsome oil painting of a still life of flowers by well-listed painter Leonard Raven-Hill, who has works in the Tate, British Museum, National Portrait Gallery and other famous collections. We have another painting by the same artist listed.
Leonard Raven-Hill (10 March 1867 – 31 March 1942) was an English artist, illustrator, and cartoonist.
He was born in Bath and educated at Bristol Grammar School and the Devon county school. He studied art at the Lambeth School of Art and then in Paris under MM. Bougereau and Aimé Morot. He began to exhibit at the Salon in 1887 but moved back to London when he was appointed as the art editor of Pick-Me-Up. He also continued to work as a painter and exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1889. In 1893 he founded, with Arnold Golsworthy, the humorous and artistic monthly The Butterfly (1893–94, revived in 1899–1900) but began his most prominent association with a publication when his drawings appeared in Punch in December 1895. By 1901 he had joined the staff of Punch as the junior political cartoonist.
He contributed to many other illustrated magazines including The Daily Graphic, Daily Chronicle, The Strand Magazine, The Sketch, Pall Mall Gazette and Windsor Magazine. He also illustrated a number of books including
· East London by Sir Walter Besant (1901)
· Cornish Saints and Sinners by J. H. Harris
· Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K. Jerome
· Stalky and Co by Rudyard Kipling
· Kipps by H. G. Wells
