Lucien Neuquelman
'La Cote Pres de St.Tropez' The Coast Near St. Tropez. A pointillist painting

About the Item

LUCIEN NEUQUELMAN An exquisite pointillist oil painting. Signed and titled on the reverse. The frame has the gallery exhibition label on it. Painting Size: 22 x 18" (55 x 46cm) Outside Frame Size: 30 x 26" (76 x 57cm) France 1909-1988 Lucien Neuquelman, French oil pointillist, began studying at the Art School of Toulon. He moved to Paris and became a student at the Académie de la Grande-Chaumière in Montparnasse in Paris and went on to meet French Fauvist Othon Friesz the painting master who, along with Matisse, Marquet and Manguin, launched the fauvism movement after the ground breaking “cage aux fauves” exhibition of 1905. He became his pupil and learned both the colour theories of the fauves and the more sombre palette of Chardin, Poussin and Corot whom Friesz also admired. Particularly in Neuquelman’s work it is apparent that he had absorbed ideas of strong compositions and solid, voluminous forms, The luminosity of Lucien’s paintings is compounded by the pointillist technique that he cherished so much. Using his characteristically bright palette and energetic, short brushstrokes, Neuquelman enjoyed painting landscapes and views of Paris and Brittany. A Parisian gallery organised a retrospective of his work in 1945. The pointillist movement, initiated by Seurat in the 1880s, was grounded in scientific and optical theories. Whilst the impressionists were mixing colours on their palette before applying it on the canvas, pointillists were applying directly pure colours in dots and let the eye of observers recompose a more striking picture. After the death of Seurat, the technique continued to evolve with Signac with an increasingly colourful palette which deeply influenced the fauvists. Lucien Neuquelman became a successful pointillist and is referenced as such in the Benezit art dictionary.

  • H.M. Saffer II, "Quiet Sundown", Pointillist Landscape Oil Painting on Board
    By H.M. Saffer II
    Located in Saratoga Springs, NY
    Colorful landscape painting "Quiet Sundown" by artist H.M. Saffer II. Painted in the style of pointillism, a series of tiny painted brushstrokes , this 16x20 oil landscape depicts a colorful and serene sunset featuring bright yellows and oranges to deep blues and greens. A meandering stream makes it's way through a pocket of trees. About the artist: Born July 18, 1942 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, H.M. Saffer II launched his career by exhibiting his art at a public art show at the tender age of six. Upon graduation from Temple University in 1965, he traveled to Paris, France to enroll in graduate economics courses. Concurrently, HM's path took a different twist, as he soon leveraged his musical talent performing with notable French stars Hugues Aufray, Jacques Brel, Charles Aznavour, and many others. He was later hired by Barclay Records as a producer, and had several hit records in 1968 and 1969. During this period, he was also the chef / owner of two restaurants in Paris, and later a third located in Ibiza, Spain. Remarkably, as engaged as he was, HM never stopped painting and exhibiting his works. Several of his shows - sponsored by his restaurants and music associates - "sold out" and were favorably written up by the press. Before returning to the United States in 1970, he completed selected studies at L'Ecole Des Beaux Arts and exhibited in Paris and Brussels, Belgium. HM continued on with his music career in the United States at Warner Brothers Productions where he co-wrote the international hit song, "Look What They Done To My Song, Ma", recorded by Ray Charles, Melanie and other performers. While at Warner he painted a forty foot mural in their Madison Ave., NY headquarters and exhibited his works in the firm's lobby. In 1972 HM was hired by the dynamic songwriter/producer Bob Crewe...
