Harald Leth Interior Paintings
Danish, 1899-1986
Harald Leth commenced his art studies with Johannes Larsen in 1921 before attending Harald Giersing's painting school from 1921–23. He later studied with Olaf Rude (1923–1924) and briefly, with Peter Rostrup Bøyesen. During the 1920s, Leth also studied in Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam, where he was exposed to the ferment of modernist ideas which led to a general lightening and brightening of his palette. Leth first exhibited at the Charlottenborg autumn exhibition in 1923. He became a member of several avant-garde art movements, including the Høstutstillingen (1934–44), Koloristerne (1946–50) and Matsuda Stillingen (1951–82). During his summers on the island of Bornholm in the 1920s, Leth became influenced by the work of Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, which helped him in the development of his own naturalistic style. Leth painted landscapes, still lives and interiors, often composed on a smaller scale. From 1944, when he moved to the north of Zealand, he adopted an increasingly coloristic style. During his long career, Leth exhibited widely and with success and was the recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards including the Danish Academy medal (1929), the Eckersberg Medal (1958), the Thorvaldsen Medal (1966) and the Prince Eugen Medal (1983). His work is held in the permanent collection of the National Art Museum of Denmark and the collection of the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. Leth is well-listed in Benezit's Dictionary of Artists, Painters and Sculptors and Weilbach's Dictionary of Artists and all other relevant art reference works.

"Ambiance a la Lampe Galle"
by Bernard Fouchet (French 1932-2013)
signed lower corner, titled verso
in original frame with the artists monogram as part of the moulding
canvas: 15 x 18 inches
framed: 24 x 27 inches
provenance: private collection, France
Absolutely beautiful original painting by Bernard Fouchet (French 1932-2013). The work is signed to the front and back and titled verso too. Very rarely, it looks like the frame was custom made for or by the artist - as the monogram of BF is part of the moulding.
The painting radiates colour and vibrancy, with this eclectic mix of still life objects on a table, set against this red/ orange backdrop of colours. Beautiful.
Condition report:
the painting is in very good condition. The frame has a couple of 'nibbles' to the corners but is fine.
Bernard Fouchet was born in Cerdon-du-Loiret, France. He was the student of Augustine Memin who worked with Utrillo and Alfred Chagniot...

At the left of the composition, there is a curtain or cloth draped across part of the scene.
