Boris Deutsch Landscape Drawings and Watercolors

American, 1892-1978
Boris Deutsch (1892-1978) was a 20th century modernist figurative painter and printmaker. He was born in Krasnagorka, Lithuania on June 4, 1892. Deutsch began drawing at age five and remained a self-taught artist, except for brief intervals at the Bloom Academy of Art in Riga, Latvia and the Kunstgewerbe Schule in Berlin. He moved to Seattle, WA in 1916 and then to Los Angeles in 2019. He began his career as a commercial art and set designer for movies. In the late 1930's he was recruited to paint murals for the New Deal, WPA, receiving numerous mural commissions to paint murals for the treasury department and several post office buildings. In 1941 he won the large competition to decorate the Terminal Annex Post Office in Los Angeles with eleven large murals. During the last decade of his life he experimented with monotypes and other printmaking techniques. Deutsch died in Los Angeles on Jan. 16, 1978. Boris Deutsch's art has been the focus of many exhibitions, including: The University of California, Los Angeles in 1926, The Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco in 1930, Oakland Art Gallery in 1937, The University of Southern California (USC) in 1939, The Whitney Museum in New York in 1946 and a centennial exhibition by the Judah l. Magnes Museum in Berkeley California in 1992. In 1955, Marc Chagall called him the greatest Jewish artist of our time. Deutch's works are held by several institutions and museums, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the San Diego Museum of Art, the Scribal Museum, the Judah L. Magnes Museum Berkeley, California, and the Pomona College Museum of Art.

Notre Dame de Paris
By Lucien Génin
Located in London, GB
'Notre Dame de Paris', gouache on paper, by Lucien Génin (circa 1930s). An absolutely charming and now, historic depiction from the 1930s, of the most famous cathedral in France. It is one of the most widely recognised symbols of the city of Paris and the French nation. As the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Paris, Notre-Dame contains the cathedra of the Archbishop of Paris. Approximately 12 million people visit Notre-Dame annually, making it the most visited monument in Paris. While undergoing renovation and restoration, the roof of Notre-Dame caught fire on the evening of 15 April 2019. Burning for around 15 hours, the cathedral sustained serious damage. The government of France hopes the reconstruction can be completed by Spring 2024, in time for the opening of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Unlike the actual cathedral, this artwork is in good condition, is newly framed and glazed and signed by the artist in the lower left hand corner. Upon request a video may be provided. About the Artist: After the devastation of the First World War, Lucien Génin (1894 - 1953) left his provincial home in the autumn of 1919 to find his fortune among the lively Parisians in the heart of Montmartre. Génin befriended the painters Frank Will, Gen Paul, Émile Boyer, Marcel Leprin...

Le Pont Neuf
By Lucien Génin
Located in London, GB
'Le Pont Neuf', gouache on fine art paper, by Lucien Génin (circa 1930s). The Pont Neuf is the oldest standing bridge across the river Seine in Paris, France. It stands by the western point of the Île de la Cité, the island in the middle of the river that was, between 250 and 225 BC, the birthplace of Paris. It is called 'The New Bridge' because at the time of its inauguration (built 1578-1607), it embodied a very modern look compared to other bridges which spanned the Seine. Lucien Génin has captured its beauty in this lively depiction from the 1930s. Just before the bridge is a 'Bateau Mouche' an open excursion boat that provides visitors with a view of the city from along the river. The artwork is in good overall condition commensurate with age and medium used. It has been newly frame with anti-reflective glass. Please enjoy the photos accompanying this listing. Signed by the artist in the lower left hand. Upon request a video may be provided.
