Charles Malfroy Art

French, 1862-1918

Charles Malfroy was an accomplished French artist who specialized in coastal, marine and landscape painting. He was born in Lyon on March 27th, 1862.  After completing his formal art training at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, Malfroy embarked on his artistic career with exhibitions at the Salon in Lyon beginning in 1881. He was the father of noted marine artist Henry Malfroy. Charles Malfroy was an impressionist painter in the manner of important Marseille artist John-Baptiste Olive. He was the observer of effects of light rendered with both freshness and decision combined with subtle use of color, creating wonderful views of the fishing villages on the French coastline.

Pluie a Venice (Venice in the Rain)
By André Hambourg
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Pluie a Venice is painted in Hambourg's preferred palette of muted blue-green, grey, and gold with splashes of ruby red, deep blue, and emerald green. The soft colors work well for beach scenes and rainy days such as the ones portrayed in this painting. The impressionistic scene shows multiple pedestrians strolling down the boardwalk, shielding themselves from the rain with colorful umbrellas that provide pops of color and balance the overcast sky. The background contains a three-masted ship and Piazza San Marco's famous bell tower and Basilica. Hambourg uses the minimum number of brushstrokes necessary to portray ships, seagulls, buildings and people as well as reflections on the glistening sidewalk. The brushstrokes in the sky have an interesting texture that is controlled yet carefree and there is heavy impasto throughout. His portrayal is both realistic and romanticized. Hambourg was clearly influenced by the great Impressionist artists of earlier generations, perhaps none more than the one with a direct connection to his family. Hambourg's wife, Nicole Rachet, was born into a family with a large collection of works by Impressionist master Eugene Boudin. Rachet's grandfather was a contemporary and friend of Boudin's, and a collector of his work. In their later years, Hambourg and Rachet donated over 300 canvases by Boudin and other artists to the Eugene Boudin Museum in Honfleur, France. It was such a large and important gift that the collection bears...

Landscape. Oil on cardboard, Figurative, Nature, Muted colors, Polish art
By Magdalena Spasowicz
Located in Warsaw, PL
20th century figurative landscape oil on cardboard painting by Polish artist Magdalena Spasowicz. Artwork is in classic style, it resembles impressionism. Composition is painted with wide brush strokes. Colors are muted. Artwork depicts a rural landscape with a tree in the centre of the composition. MAGDALENA SPASOWICZ Studied painting under prof. Jan Cybis and graphic arts with prof. Tadeusz Kulisiewicz at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. She received her diploma in 1953. Her works have been presented in numerous exhibitions in Poland and abroad, among others in Warsaw, London, New York, Bratislava, Washington, Moscow, Berlin, Budapest, and are to be found in private and public collections around the world. In 2017 two individual exhibition of the artists took place - at the Regional Museum in Kozienice Palace and at the Museum of Western Mazowsze in Zyrardow. Magdalena Spasowicz has been spending every single moment on painting for many years now. Most of her paintings are monochromatically coloured landscapes, of places where eye cheers soul with a sight close to heart, known and well remembered. French painting of Pissarro and Utrillo has been a very important inspiration for Magdalena Spasowicz. A desire to still-frame every moment when the artist meets Nature and beloved places is an imperative, which obliges to come back to canvas and paint, paint with a total devotion. The artistry of the places represented in the paintings of Magdalena...

Charles Malfroy "Fishing Village"
By Charles Malfroy
Located in New Orleans, LA
An absolutely wonderful Impressionist coastal village scene that could hold its own in any collection of superb oil paintings (see artist bio below). I've priced it right in the middle of the auction (wholesale!) price estimates of $3,000 to $5,000 for a similar painting by the artist being offered at auction in New Orleans in 2019, so I think it's a real deal. The sun beams down on fishing boats and fishermen mending nets and repairing in preparation for their next outing. Masterful and delicate daubs of paint demonstrate the artist’s intensive training in Impressionist techniques. Even in what appears to be the neutral-colored sandy soil of the shore, you can see blues, purples, reds, ochres and other bold hues combined to create the overall effect the masters were after in their experiments to capture how we really see. A very happy scene, almost certainly painted on an easel outdoors, plein-air style. 27”h x 34.5”w (18.25”h x 25.75” unframed) Here's some biographical information on the artist: "Charles Malfroy...
