c.1910

About the Item

Signed oil on canvas circa 1910 by French post impressionist painter Michel Korochansky. This autumnal landscape depicts a view of women washing linen on the bank of a river. The last light of the setting sun is illuminating the bricks of the building and the orange leaves of the trees, making them glow against the sky. Signature: Signed lower left Dimensions: Framed: 21"x28" Unframed: 15"x22" Provenance: Private French collection Born 1866, in Odessa; died June 1925, in Montigny-sur-Loing, France. Michel Korochansky was a pupil of William Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury at the Académie Julian in Paris. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français, obtaining an honourable mention in 1910. He also benefited from purchases by the state and the City of Paris. His muted palette enhances the changes in tonality in his landscapes.

    A beautiful woman sits at an open window, gazing down at a small bird who has landed nearby in this serene portrait by Charles Levier.

Inspired by Hollywood cinema, Charles Levier sought harmony in composition and purity of color and form. His said that his creations represented "a light and delicate world, of dark and subtle shades and colors." Levier worked in a somewhat abstracted, cubist style. Additionally he often employed the French technique of "cloisonnism" (after the French for "partition"), a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours, also seen in this work. The term was coined by critic Edouard Dujardin on the occasion of the Salon des Indépendants, in March 1888 and was commonly used by artists like Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Paul...
