Hughes Claude Pissarro
La Plage À Pornichet By H. Claude Pissarro

About the Item

Hugues Claude Pissarro b.1935 French La plage à Pornichet (The beach at Pornichet) Signed “H. Claude Pissarro” (lower right) Pastel on card French artist H. Claude Pissarro utilizes his signature pastels to render the picturesque seaside of the beautiful French coastal town of Pornichet. Captured in a captivating variety of vivid pigments, Pissarro draws tall beach grasses, shady cabanas and casual beachgoers with red-roofed structures and the boundless coast in the distance. This sunny summertime seaside composition perfectly showcases Pissarro's incredible mastery over the medium of pastel and his unique and at times nostalgic artistic point of view. Hailing from a long lineage of artists, including Impressionist Camille Pissarro, 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 Eisenhower cemented his reputation as an artist of renown, and his work has since been featured in important exhibitions throughout Europe and the United States. While his style has evolved throughout his career, he is best known for his energetic pastel compositions. H. Claude Pissarro’s works have been exhibited and collected throughout the world, and they remain highly coveted for their intimate size and relatable subject matter.

"Brume Sur La Seine (Mist On The Seine)" Pastel Raymond Thibesart (1874-1968)
By Raymond Thibesart
Located in SANTA FE, NM
'Brume Sur La Seine (Mist On The Seine)' Raymond Thibesart (France, 1874-1968) Circa 1920s Pastel on Paper 12.6 x 9.5 (16 3/4 x 13 3/4 frame) inches Signed lower left Raymond Thibesart was born into an affluent family on May 2nd, 1874. As a small child, Thibesart’s family moved to a suburb of Paris where the very young artist found a wealth of teachers and inspiration to pull from. Thibesart showed such proclivity for drawing at an early age, and had enough talent that famed impressionist Emile Boggio began giving him lessons when he was just 11 years old. Eventually, Thibesart began formal training at the Lycee Rollin in Paris, followed by studies at L’Ecole des Beaux-Arts and the Academie Julian. While working in Symbolism, Thibesart became a student of the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art movements of his native France and began winning numerous medals in France, including the gold medal from the Societe des Artistes Francais in 1897. Thibesart then began his studies with the famed Impressionist Henri Martin for much of his early life. From Martin, he learned the technique of “plein air" painting who as a master of the discipline. Proficiency of this technique and its aesthetic, freed up the young artist, allowing him the ability to create amazingly beautiful light and shadow splayed across his trademark subjects which frequently included the landscapes of Italy...
