Leith Ridley Paintings

French, South African

Mrs. Leith Ridley is a South African-born citizen of France, former film designer & decorator, painter and portraitist living in Bulgaria. She paints almost exclusively on private commission. Her portraits in oil inspired by the Dutch and Italian Old Masters, as well in a large-format manner mostly in acrylics, in line with the more popular Contemporary and Pop styles, with a statement or observation to make or simply fun behind the conception, depending on the character of the subject. As well as an original style of large abstract landscape, a delicate and often dramatic play between space, transparency and texture, using either acrylic or oil, or both. Ridley’s artworks are owned in private and public collections worldwide.

French Mid 19th Century Portrait of an Italian Brigand
Located in Cotignac, FR
Mid 19th Century oil on canvas portrait of an Italian brigand, unsigned, in painted wood and gilt frame. The painting is a fine and fascinating rendition with plenty of wonderful character and detail to the costume, accessories, landscape and seascape. Very atmospheric and imposing much like the character it portrays. There is a trade stamp to the back of the canvas for the Paris firm of Susse Freres. The canvas is on a fine quality stretcher with 'keys'. There is an artist's name or title written on the top of the rear stretcher (see photo). Bands of brigands who populated the hills of southern Italy were steady fodder for the Romantic imagination, and their exploits were reported both factually, fancifully and artistically The painting dates from a period when France, under its then leader Napoleon III, was involved in the conflicts in the Italian states and the unification and eventual creation of the nation of Italy. An earlier and similar portrait exists of the infamous brigand Mazzocchi by Achille-Etna Michallony . Léon Cogniet...
