Pierre Carrier-Belleuse Portrait Paintings
French, 1851-1932
Pierre Carrier-Belleuse was one of four artists born to Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse (1824-1887), a thriving sculptor. Pierre studied at the l’Ecole des Beaux-Arts, Paris, under Alexandre Cabanel (1824-1881) and Pierre Victor Galland (1822-1892). The influence of their soft palates and classical style can be seen in the present lot. He exhibited in the Salon de Paris from 1875, receiving an honorable mention in 1887 and a silver medal at the Universalle Exposition in 1889.
He flourished in his depictions of Ballerinas, where his favored medium of pastel allowed him to capture the movement of their dance. Carrier-Belleuse enjoyed working on a large scale. Between 1914 and 1916, Carrier-Belleuse and Auguste François-Marie Gorguet proposed, planned and co-created what was considered world's largest painting: Panthéon de la Guerre (45 ft. high and 402 ft. in circumference) containing almost 6,000 portraits, painted mostly from life.to

Pierre Carrier-Belleuse studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris under Alexandre Cabanel and the interior decorative artist Pierre Victor Galland. He started out as an oil painter and produced genre compositions, such as his Final Rendezvous. From 1885, however, he opted to work exclusively in pastel, producing a large number of sketches and portraits but always remaining faithful to his earlier genre compositions. Examples include Pierrot, Harlequin, Woman with Cat. The periodical Figaro Illustré published a large number of his sketches of dancers, a recurrent theme throughout his work.
From 1875, Pierre Carrier-Belleuse exhibited frequently at the Paris Salon, receiving an honourable mention in 1887 and being awarded a silver medal at the Exposition Universelle of 1889.
