Marcel Mouly Paintings

French, 1918-2008

A winner of two of France’s highest honors, the Chevalier de L'Ordre des Arts et Lettres in 1957 and the Premier Prix de Lithographie in 1973, artist Marcel Mouly was associated with Fauvism and found inspiration in the Cubism of Pablo Picasso and the intense colors associated with the work of Henri Matisse. He began his journey to stardom within the dark confines of a German prison cell during the Second World War.

While Mouly studied drawing classes as a youth, it was not until he was placed in solitary confinement that he decided to dedicate his life to pursuing art.

Mistaken for a spy during WWII, Mouly was traveling through Normandy when he was questioned by German soldiers about his identity. He was subsequently imprisoned by the occupying forces in France and was released in 1943. Once free, he met French artist Edouard Pignon, with whom Mouly rented famous sculptor Jacques Lipchitz’s Boulogne studio. Mouly studied under Lipchitz and had his first showing of two paintings at the Salon d'Automne, alongside French painter, Henri Mattise.

In 1948, the French government acquired his Femme à la Lampe, and a flurry of exhibitions followed in Italy, Sweden, Denmark and elsewhere. Mouly’s work is held in the collections of more than 20 museums including the Musée Nationale d’Art Moderne, the Museum of Modern Art, Bibliothèque Nationale and the Los Angeles County Museum

Mother and Child Ibiza Beach Mediterranean art Oil Painting Ignacio Gil Spain

By Ignacio Gil Sala

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Artist Ignacio Gil Sala (1913–2003) Title Motherhood on the Beach of Ibiza Date c.1990 Medium Oil on canvas Dimensions 38 × 46 cm (14.97 × 18.12 in) Signature Signed “I. Gil Sala” in the lower right corner. Framing Unframed Condition Good condition. Canvas firm and well stretched with stable paint surface. Description Luminous Mediterranean scene by Spanish painter Ignacio Gil Sala depicting a mother holding her daughter on the rocky shore of Ibiza. The composition combines figure painting and coastal landscape through a vibrant, expressive brushstroke typical of late 20th-century Spanish post-Impressionism. The intense blues of the sea contrast with the warm tones of the rocks and figures, creating a bright and atmospheric Mediterranean setting. Works depicting Ibiza and family scenes by the sea are especially appreciated by collectors of Spanish figurative painting and Mediterranean coastal art. Biography Ignacio Gil Sala (1913–2003) was a Spanish painter known for his Mediterranean landscapes and figurative scenes. Trained at the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona, he developed a post-Impressionist style characterized by vibrant color, dynamic brushwork and a strong sensitivity to Mediterranean light. Throughout his career he exhibited widely in Spain and abroad, dedicating much of his production to coastal landscapes, Mediterranean villages and scenes inspired by Ibiza.
