Signac loved sailing and began to travel in 1892, sailing a small boat to almost all the ports of France.

This lithograph was published by Gazette des Beaux-Arts. The Gazette des Beaux-Arts was a French art review, found in 1859 by Édouard Houssaye, with Charles Blanc as its first chief editor. Assia Visson Rubinstein was chief editor under the direction of George Wildenstein from 1928 until 1960. Her papers, which include all editions of the Gazette from this period, are intact at the Cantonal and University Library of Lausanne in Dorigny. The Gazette was a world reference work on art history for nearly 100 years - one other editor in chief, from 1955 to 1987, was Jean Adhémar. It was bought in 1928 by the Wildenstein family, whose last representative was Daniel Wildenstein, its director from 1963 until his death in 2001. The review closed in 2002.

North Shore - colourful, impressionist, landscape, limited edition lithograph
By Alfred Joseph Casson
Located in Bloomfield, ON
When the world thinks about the famous Group of Seven, this is likely the kind of image they recall—the quiet majesty of the Canadian wilderness. This lithograph by one of its youngest members, Alfred Joseph Casson is one of many classic landscapes he painted of the north—mountains, lakes, bare trees in the foreground rendered in his favoured bright palette of autumn colours—red, yellow, orange, a touch of green, and deep blue lakes against a cloudy white sky. Casson was an avid canoeist and spent many hours camping and drawing in northern Ontario often alongside fellow members of the Group.
“I had to develop my own style. I began to dig out places of my own...” A. J. Casson
He moved on to two commercial art firms in Toronto where he worked as an assistant to the artist Franklin Carmichael, one of the founding members of the renowned Group of Seven, (A group of Canadian landscape painters that included Tom Thomson, Lawren Harris and A. Y. Jackson.). Carmichael encouraged him to sketch and paint on his own. Casson was invited to join the Group of Seven in the 1920’s with whom he painted for years. Following their demise, he formed the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Colour...

Galleries Maurice Sternberg, Chicago - 1973
In 1880, having left school, Paul Signac contemplated becoming a scholar, his financial independence being assured by his prosperous family. In February 1882, he published a pastiche of Émile Zola’s work in the Parisian magazine Le Chat Noir, entitled Serendipity ( Une trouvaille), but on seeing reproductions of Claude Monet’s work in La Vie Moderne, he decided to turn his ambitions to painting. He took lessons with painter Émile Bin in Montmartre, and settled in successive studios in the area. He wrote to Monet, asking his advice, in 1883. In 1884 he met Armand Guillaumin and exhibited work at the Salon des Artistes Indépendants where he was introduced to Georges Seurat, whose Bathing at Asnières was a revelation to him. The two artists moved in the same avant-garde literary circles and became close friends. Both were part of the founding committee of the Société des Artistes Indépendants (Signac was its President from 1909 to 1934 and unceasingly encouraged younger avant-garde artists such as the Fauves and the Cubists). In 1885 Signac met Camille Pissarro at Durand-Ruel’s. He met Vincent Van Gogh in 1887 at Père Tanguy’s paint shop and the pair remained close friends. He spent summers in various parts of France (Les Andelys and Fécamp in 1886, Comblat-le-Château in Auvergne in 1887, Collioure on the Mediterranean coast, Portrieux in North Brittany in 1888, Cassis in 1889, Italy and Brittany in 1990, and Concarneau in 1891). In 1892 he discovered the little port of St-Tropez where he bought a villa – La Hune – in 1897. He returned there each summer, bringing with him several friends, artists, and writers, including Henri Matisse, who worked with Signac and Henri Edmond Cross for several months. Signac was constantly searching for new subjects to paint, often travelling to ports such as La Rochelle, Marseilles, Genoa, Rotterdam (1896), Switzerland (1903)), Venice (1904 and 1908), and Istanbul (1907). He received the Croix de la Légion d’Honneur in 1911. In 1913, after the birth of his daughter, Ginette, with his mistress Jeanne Selmershein-Desgranges, he separated from his wife and settled in Antibes.
In 1884, Signac discovered the writings of the chemist Michel-Eugène Chevreul, whose pioneering study of colour, The Law of Simultaneous Contrast (1839) had been developed by Hermann von Helmholtz (1878). Signac also read the work of David Sutter, whose articles on the Phenomena of Sight were published in 1880 in the review Art, and that of Edouard Rood (1881). Signac’s views on colour were also influenced by Eugène Delacroix, whose Journal was published between 1893 and 1895. Signac had a taste for mathematics, and in 1889 worked closely with his friend Charles Henry, a mathematician and physician. Henry was researching mathematical and geometric proportion and their potential application to the industrial arts. Signac was associated with the Symbolists of La Revue Indépendante. He was also an admirer of Jules Vallès and Joris-Karl Huysmans. He collaborated on the anarchist journal Le Cri du Peuple and throughout his life unceasingly expressed his social and political opinions. A competent writer, from 1890 he published various articles on art, provided texts for exhibition catalogues and wrote other publications including a volume on Stendhal (Antibes, December 1913-January 1914) and a monograph on Jongkind (Paris, Crès, 1927) which included a Watercolour Treatise ( Traité de l’aquarelle). In 1899 he published From Delacroix to Neo-Impressionism (Editions de la Revue blanche, Paris, 1899; H. Floury, Paris, 1911; Hermann, Paris, 1964), in which he analysed the principles of Neo-Impressionism which he had developed with Seurat. He methodically studied the composition and decomposition of light in coloured rays, and quickly established his role as the theoretician of the group, which included Cross, Théo Van Rysselberghe, Maximilien Luce, Henry van de Velde, Hippolyte Petitjean, Lucie Cousturier...

Le Pont des Arts avec Remorqueurs
By Paul Signac
Located in Wiscasset, ME
Born in Paris, France in 1863, artist Paul Victor Jules Signac decided to pursue an art career at the age of eighteen following a visit to an exhibit of Claude Monet’s work. Although he had completed a course in architecture, Signac had no formal art training and was largely self taught. An avid sailor, Signac traveled and painted the coasts of Europe and many French harbor cities. Known for his Neo-Impressionist and Pointillism style of painting, Signac and his contemporaries greatly influenced and inspired the next generation of painters.
Signac was one of the founders of the Societe des Artistes Independants with Georges Seurat, Odilon Redon and Albert Dubois...
