Anne Marie Migette Perard
Mid-20th Century French Pastel Landscape of Bethonvilliers Village in Hills

About the Item

Title: Mid-20th Century French Pastel Landscape of Bethonvilliers Village in Hills by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977) Signed: Yes Medium: Pastel on unframed paper Size: 10.75 inches (height) x 14.5 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: his gentle and luminous pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard captures the peaceful charm of Bethonvilliers, a rural village nestled among the hills of France. Seen from a slightly elevated viewpoint, the white cottages with their terracotta rooftops emerge from behind a rich screen of trees, framed by softly contoured hills and an expansive, glowing sky. Perard’s use of colour is poetic—lush greens and golds dominate the landscape, while lavender and mauve tones fade into the distance, hinting at the transition between day and dusk. Rendered in her expressive post-impressionist style, Perard uses short strokes and blended textures to suggest the contours of land and shadow. The composition evokes a sense of quiet observation, as if the artist were capturing the memory of a late summer walk or a peaceful moment of solitude. The positioning of the horizon and the weight of the trees to the right draw the eye into the valley beyond, creating both spatial depth and emotional connection. Ideal for collectors of French countryside scenes, 20th-century landscape works, or art that brings a sense of calm and beauty into the home, this piece is a wonderful example of Perard’s ability to celebrate the overlooked corners of rural France through colour and sensitivity.

Dimanche au Champ de Course (Deauville) (Sunday at the Racetrack)
By Hughes Claude Pissarro
Located in New Orleans, LA
Hugues 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...
