Louis Icart
"Café place Blanche", 20th Century Oil on Canvas by French Artist Louis Icart

Circa 1925

About the Item

LOUIS ICART French, 1888 - 1950 CAFÉ PLACE BLANCHE signed "Louis Icart" (lower left) titled, inscribed, signed and located "- Café place Blanche - / XVI-77 / L. I, / Paris" (on the reverse) oil on canvas 15 X 18 inches (38 X 45.5 cm.) framed: 20 X 23 inches (50.5 X 58.5 cm.) PROVENANCE Private Brazilian Collector He was born in Toulouse in 1880. Painter and engraver, he was a self-taught artist who had no academic background. He began to draw very young and in the first stage he was very successful with his beautiful engravings. He was also passionate about fashion, achieving success and fame very quickly, both in France and the United States. He worked for the most important design centers, at a time when fashion was undergoing a profound and radical change. In 1925, in Paris, the term "Art Deco" was created in the exhibition "Decorative Arts" that spread throughout the French capital. The art deco of Icart became the symbol of the time. His style was influenced and inspired by the great French masters of the 18th century, such as Boucher, Watteau or Fragonard. This was reflected in his pictorial work; He painted elegant women wrapped in mystery on some occasions in others, as in the work of "Café Place Blanche" he painted very young and candid young ladies who transmitted that joy of youth. These everyday scenes from the life of Paris were unique and much appreciated. He died in Paris in 1950.

Bindewald d.j., 27 Oil on canvas, 140.5 x 90.5 cm In black and gilt gesso frame. Note: Bindewald was born in Charlottenburg. He moved to Berlin in 1914 where he studied till 1924 at the Berliner Kunst Akademie. Bindewald travelled in Europe, but mainly stayed in Germany and certainly never was in China. This painting was made in Europe, presumably in the China Town of Berlin. Bindewald received several commisions in Germany from factory owners who wanted their factories painted inside, usually with workers, as well as outside. In the present painting the sitter on the right seems to be a man with a Manchurian background, wearing the brown coat reserved for the highest aristocracy in China. In China the black sleeve-ends completely cover the hands, indicating that the high aristocracy does not have to do any manuel labour. This man clearly is not a factory worker but he possibly is the (co)- owner of the factory in the background and as such might need his hands to do at least some writing. The man on the left in the modern Western suit...
