Impressionist Portrait Paintings
IMPRESSIONIST STYLE
Emerging in 19th-century France, Impressionist art embraced loose brushwork and plein-air painting to respond to the movement of daily life. Although the pioneers of the Impressionist movement — Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Paul Cézanne, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir — are now household names, their work was a radical break with an art scene led and shaped by academic traditions for around two centuries. These academies had oversight of a curriculum that emphasized formal drawing, painting and sculpting techniques and historical themes.
The French Impressionists were influenced by a group of artists known as the Barbizon School, who painted what they witnessed in nature. The rejection of pieces by these artists and the later Impressionists from the salons culminated in a watershed 1874 exhibition in Paris that was staged outside of the juried systems. After a work of Monet’s was derided by a critic as an unfinished “impression,” the term was taken as a celebration of their shared interest in capturing fleeting moments as subject matter, whether the shifting weather on rural landscapes or the frenzy of an urban crowd. Rather than the exacting realism of the academic tradition, Impressionist paintings, sculptures, prints and drawings represented how an artist saw a world in motion.
Many Impressionist painters were inspired by the perspectives in imported Japanese prints alongside these shifts in European painting — Édouard Manet drew on ukiyo-e woodblock prints and depicted Japanese design in his Portrait of Émile Zola, for example. American artists such as Mary Cassatt and William Merritt Chase, who studied abroad, were impacted by the work of the French artists, and by the late 19th century American Impressionism had its own distinct aesthetics with painters responding to the rapid modernization of cities through quickly created works that were vivid with color and light.

VAN BIESBROECK Jules. Portrait of a man . Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned.
Located in Paris, FR
Portrait of a man. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned.
This work will be recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist currently in preparation.
Jules Van Biesbroeck was the son of Jules Evariste van Biesbroeck, a painter of Ghent, but was born in Italy, in Portici, near Naples, while his parents were staying there. (In the 19th century many artists made educational trips to Italy). It was a long visit: the child was two years old by the time the family returned to Ghent.[1]
After a short period of practice with his father, van Biesbroeck was enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent. His first painting, "The Shepherd" (French: Le pâtre), was sold at the Triennale in Ghent. In 1888, when he was only 15 years old, he made his debut at the "Salon des Champs-Elysées" in Paris with his monumental work "The Launch of the Argo" (French: Le lancement...

Contemporary figurative oil painting canvas "I will always stand by your side"
Located in VÉNISSIEUX, FR
This contemporary figurative oil painting depicting two women was created by French artist Natalya Mougenot. The artwork, titled I Will Always Stand by Your Side, presents a poignant and emotionally charged scene, capturing the intimate embrace of two women.
The painting reflects the artist's roots and cultural background, establishing a profound spiritual connection with the women she portrays. The bond between the two women—whether sisters, friends, or a mother and daughter—is undeniably one of mutual reliance. They are each other’s rock and shelter, supporting one another in times of difficulty and challenge. The piece speaks to the strength one person offers another, particularly during challenging moments.
Central to the work is the theme of womanhood, femininity, and the powerful spiritual connection between the artist and the women featured in her art. The piece also explores emotional transparency—qualities like strength, courage, determination, sensitivity, kindness, and authenticity—allowing for an intimate portrayal of the vulnerability and resilience shared between the figures.
The two women are depicted with minimalistic detail, their connection highlighted through form and color rather than facial features. One woman is adorned in red, while the other is painted in blue, symbolizing contrasting yet complementary forces. The bold, expressive brushstrokes create a sense of immediacy, while the serene, muted teal background offers a calming atmosphere that envelops the embrace.
The absence of discernible features on the figures directs the viewer’s focus to the embrace itself, making it the central emotional element of the painting. This anonymity invites viewers to project their own experiences and emotions onto the scene, creating a universal appeal. The harmonious interplay of warm and cool tones enhances the themes of connection and compassion, as the figures merge to form a unified whole.
I Will Always Stand by Your Side is a powerful exploration of human connection, presented with a captivating simplicity that speaks volumes. The artist’s unique approach to color and form invites a deep emotional engagement, offering both beauty and meaning.
The piece is created with oil paints on stretched linen canvas and is ready to hang. It is sold unframed, giving the buyer the freedom to frame it according to personal taste and interior style.
The artwork will be carefully packed and shipped internationally from France, accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
