Title: Mid-20th Century French Pastel Harbour Scene With Boats and Pier and Figures
by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977)
Signed: Yes
Medium: Pastel on unframed paper
Size: 13 inches (height) x 16.75 inches (width)
Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.
Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France.
Description: This atmospheric pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard beautifully captures a tranquil harbour moment, likely along the French or Mediterranean coast, in her unmistakably modern Post-Impressionist style. At the centre of the composition, a softly rendered sailboat is moored beside a wooden pier, its hull painted in layered shades of aqua, pale blue, and ochre, with its reflection shimmering gently in the still water below.
The pier is alive with subtle narrative detail: two small but clearly defined figures appear near its edge, gazing out towards the water, perhaps in quiet conversation or watching the boats return from sea. Their inclusion adds a lovely touch of humanity and movement to the scene. Further details—such as colourful dock crates in red, blue and ochre hues—lend depth and rhythm to the vertical lines of the pier’s structure.
In the distance, a second boat floats serenely in the open water, enhancing the sense of calm and coastal openness. The use of soft pastels and expressive mark-making, combined with strong compositional balance, makes this a standout work for collectors of nautical art, mid-century French modernism, or seascapes with understated figurative presence.

by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977)
Signed: Yes
Medium: Pastel on unframed paper
Size: 18 inches (height) x 12.75 inches (width)
Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound.

Description: This expressive Mid-20th Century Post-Impressionist pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard presents a sun-soaked village scene surrounded by slender cypress trees and rustic Mediterranean architecture. The warm pastel tones—terracotta, peach, ochre, and soft pink—combine with splashes of green foliage and vibrant orange fruit to evoke a summery, southern European atmosphere.
While the lower right inscription appears to read "Gzenote," the specific location remains unclear. Nevertheless, the composition strongly suggests a Provençal or Italian hill town...

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...
