About the Item

This softly colored pastel of summer roses is superbly rendered by important French symbolistt artist De Scevola. He studied at the atelier Cormon and exhibited first with the Artistes Francais and then became a member of the Société National des Beaux-Arts where he achieved significant recognition. He had a brilliant career during his time as a portraitist of important societal standing such as the duchesse d’Uzes, the duchesse de Brissac and the duc de Massa and was a master at handling pastel in the tradition of Degas and Redon, yet in a clean contemporary manner. This work has a rare and lovely color palette and unusual framing of exceptional quality that makes it singular in appearance for today's environment!

Purple and White Iris

Fannie Burr was a highly accomplished painter and one of our earlier American women artists! This very contemporary, fresh and appealing floral study was done circa 1895!! The rarity of this and its virtuoso execution could lend it to being in the collection of a Connecticut museum. Along with her sister Jennie, they were known as the "Burr Sisters". They did focus on paintings of still life and nature which would have been acceptable for a female artist of the period. Fannie studied at the Yale School of Art and then the Art Students League in New York. She was assistant to Julian Alden Weir a major CT impressionist, while he was at Yale teaching. The composition is avant-hard for this date! It is in an exceptional hand carved 22 karat frame of high value, Art Nouveau style. In the estate of 700 or so paintings by Fannie and Jenny Burr it was found that they did not sign most of the paintings. They were not selling their works or represented so much so this is understandable. This has a great provenance! Estate of the artist Julian Eddy by 1962 Connecticut Gallery, Lyme CT...
