Robert Harrison Art

b. 1949

Robert Harrison was born in San Antonio, Texas, and spent many summers as a child in Wimberley, Texas, with his grandmother, Myrtle Lowery Harrison, who introduced Robert to painting and encouraged his interest in it. Over his career which spans nearly half a century, Harrison's work has sold in fine art galleries in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas and as far away as Carmel, California. Robert's love of the Texas Hill Country is evident in his paintings and he is considered by many art authorities to be the best living landscape artist in Texas. Cecelia Steinfeldt, curator emeritus of the Witte Museum, listed him as one of the top ten bluebonnet painters of all time in an article in Southwest Art Magazine, April 1985. His number one fan was Dolph Briscoe. Governor Briscoe purchased many of his works for gifts, his enjoyment, as well as investments. Harrison is best known for his bluebonnet scenes, but he masterfully captures the beauty of Texas' rivers, Spanish missions and ranching heritage. His work has been featured in San Antonio Magazine, Southwest Art Magazine and Art International. Robert's work is sought-after by private collectors and corporate collections in the United States and internationally.

The Boat in Martigues, France
By Marie-Anne Nivoulies de Pierrefort
Located in London, GB
'The Boat in Martigues', oil on canvas, by Marie de Nivouliès de Pierrefort (circa 1910). Martigues is a small port town just northwest of Marseille in the South of France. Its nickname is the Provençal Venice. Further eastward down the coast is the town of Toulon where the artist was born in 1879. Nivouliès depicts a charming sailboat tied to the small pier yet with an unfurled sail. It looks to be a wondrous day along the Mediterranean, the kind we can always dream about. The painting is over one hundred years old and is in fair condition, yet recently brought back to life by an art restoration professional. Elegantly framed, it is stabilised now for decades into the future. Signed by the artist on the lower right corner. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying the listing. Upon request, a video may be provided of the artwork. About the Artist: Although she was a direct descendant of the counts of de Pierrefort, Marie de Nivouliès de Pierrefort's (1879-1968) family was very poor. In spite of the poverty, Pierrefort attended a Catholic school run by nuns, obtaining a scholarship from the School of Fine Arts of Paris. While still a student, she attended workshops of great Impressionist masters such as Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) and Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947). In 1910 she won a travel award from the school and traveled to Tunisia where she painted several Mediterranean landscapes. In 1938 the painter moved to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where she painted the beautiful landscapes seen from her window. In Rio, Pierrefort had two individual exhibitions, both at the National Museum of Fine Arts, in the years 1946 and 1956. Although widowed in 1944, Pierrefort decided not to return to France until 1950. She remained there until 1959 when she definitively returned to Brazil. Her atelier in the neighbourhood of Glória was frequented by many emerging artists who learned the techniques of impressionism from her. Afterwards, Pierrefort painted for almost a decade in Brazil until she passed away in 1968 in Rio. After her death, many canvases were found in her studio but had been damaged or destroyed by humidity and by the intervention of her many cats. The painter Sergio Telles...
