About the Item

William Malherbe 1884 – 1951 French-American Painter 'Bouquet de Fleurs' Signature: Signed lower right Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Image size 62,50 x 51,50 cm, frame size 80 x 69,50 cm Biography: Malherbe William, born on December 28, 1884, was a distinguished French painter whose artistic contributions flourished within the realm of post-impressionism. His creative brilliance illuminated the modern art scene during his active years. William Malherbe started exhibiting in Paris at the age of 18 years. He studied Architecture for a year and a half at the School of Decorative Arts. He has experimented with various styles, such as Cubism, Fauvism, Post-impressionism and Neo-Impressionism, and in the end developed a purely personal style. Malherbe had among his friends and inspiration the foremost painters of this lively period in the Arts, such as Renoir and Bonnard. Between 1939 and 1948 William Malherbe stayed in the United States. It was at the mid-point of his stay that he executed this piece. Obviously he was inspired by the bright sunlight of the day and the scenic view before him. He used very thick paint in jewel-toned colours to create a pulsating surface reminiscent of Bellow’s landscapes, especially in the use of purples and brilliant greens. However, Malherbe developed a singular style of his own, unique enough to be singled out by the famous art historian, critic and poet Gustave Kahn as “a particularly interesting artist of the day”. Renowned for his evocative works, such as “The Lady with the Pink Hat,” “Still Life with Anemones,” and “The Reading,” Malherbe displayed a profound mastery of various subjects, including portraiture, still life, and captivating genre scenes. Muzéo proudly presents exquisite reproductions of William Malherbe’s celebrated artworks, capturing the essence of his artistic legacy. His enduring impact continues to resonate within the world of art and beyond.
