About the Item
With an expert command of light and movement, Victor Huguet’s At the Shore transports the viewer to a coastal expanse where a group of Arab horsemen and figures gather against a stunning backdrop of rolling hills and shimmering waters. The artist’s masterful brushwork captures the interplay of the elements—the salty breeze ruffling garments, the rhythmic motion of waves against the shore, and the powerful presence of the Arabian horses, poised and alert. Rich blues, ochres, and sunlit highlights infuse the scene with vitality, while the fluidity of Huguet’s technique evokes a dynamic interplay between humanity and nature.
Victor Huguet (1835–1902) was a celebrated French Orientalist painter whose works captured the landscapes, people, and customs of North Africa and the Middle East. Studying under Émile Loubon and inspired by the works of Eugène Fromentin, Huguet undertook numerous journeys to regions that were seldom visited by European artists at the time. His works are distinguished by their authenticity, meticulous detail, and atmospheric depth, reflecting a deep appreciation for the lands he depicted.
A striking example of the Orientalist movement’s fascination with the exotic and the unknown, At the Shore showcases Huguet’s ability to merge the grandeur of nature with the intimate realities of daily life. The elegant yet rugged figures, the harmonious coastal setting, and the painterly precision make this piece an outstanding representation of 19th-century European interpretations of the East. In At the Shore, Huguet presents not just a scene, but a living, breathing moment—one that continues to captivate and inspire collectors and art enthusiasts today.

The Charge 19th-century Realism Antique Oil Painting on Canvas, Signed
By Eugene Alexis Girardet
Located in Jacksonville, FL
The painting is signed and dated 1894
Description:
Eugene Alexis Girardet (1853-1907) was a prominent Swiss painter known for his remarkable attention to detail and his ability to capture vivid and dynamic scenes. Born in Paris, France, Girardet came from a family of artists and received early artistic training from his father, Paul Girardet, and his uncle, Jules Girardet, both respected engravers. He later studied at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he honed his skills and developed a deep appreciation for historical and orientalist subjects.
He was interred at the Père-Lachaise Cemetery. In addition to several museums in France, his works may be seen at the Dahesh Museum of Art and the National Museum of Fine Arts of Algiers, as well as at museums in Switzerland and New York City.
Girardet’s artwork often depicted historical and exotic scenes, particularly focusing on Middle Eastern and North African themes. His meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey a sense of movement and drama made his works highly sought after. One of his most renowned paintings, “The Charge,” exemplifies his exceptional talent and his ability to create a captivating and immersive experience for viewers.
In “The Charge,” Girardet presents an army of Arab camel...
