Henry Ottmann (1877-1927) A forest in the mist, pastel signed

By Henri Ottmann

Located in Paris, FR

Henry Ottmann (1877-1927) "Orée du bois par brume", A forest in the mist signed lower right pastel on paper 24 x 32 cm In good condition In a vintage frame : 43.5 x 53 cm The gilding on the frame is missing in many places Henry Ottmann particularly excelled in the pastel technique, as can be seen here. This is due to the fact that this delicate material obviously lends itself very well to the artist's characteristic vaporous style and manner. We should also note the great modernity of this landscape and its fades, which go almost as far as abstraction. Henry Ottmann was born on 10 April 1877 in Ancenis. He made his debut at the Salon La Libre Esthétique in Brussels in 1904 and took part in the Salon des Indépendants in Paris from 1905, the Salon d'Automne, the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts and the Salon des Tuileries. In 1911 and 1912, Ottmann exhibited at the Artistes de la Société Moderne at the Gallery Paul Durand-Ruel together with Armand Guillaumin, Henri Lebasque and others. In 1912, he exhibited at the gallery Eugène Druet. In 1920, Ottmann exhibited at the gallery Marcel...

"A Reminder of 1812"

By William Steeple Davis

Located in Southampton, NY

For your consideration a beautiful oil on canvas painting by William Steeple Davis done circa 1920 showing the battle scene of the USS Constitution and the HMS Guerriere during the War of 1812. The USS Constitution vs HMS Guerriere, was a single ship action between the two ships which took place 400 miles southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia. It took place shortly after war had broken out and would prove to be an important victory for American morale. Early in the battle Guerriere's mizzenmast fell overboard as shown in this painting. The painting is signed lower left and titled verso "A Reminder of 1812". He also signed verso on stretcher along with Orient, New York where he spent his entire life. Craquelure throughout but paint is very stable. Unframed. Davis was born on May 7, 1884, and lived his entire life in the small village of Orient, on the eastern tip of the north shore of Long Island. Like many Long Island artists, he used his rural surroundings to further his career as a painter, photographer, and commercial artist. His work has been compared to that of Whitney Hubbard, Irving R. Wiles and Fairfield Porter. But unlike his East End contemporaries, Davis was self-taught and socially isolated; he rarely left Orient and did not travel to Europe until late in life. Despite this, he frequently exhibited his works at both American and international venues, he wrote more than six hundred articles about photography for such magazines as The Camera and Photo Era, and he established a career as a commercial illustrator. (left: Self portrait, 1909, oil on board) In Davis's earliest paintings, dating from 1893 and 1894, he delighted in depicting the sailing ships he saw on Long Island Sound. With no formal training and much persistence, he strove to define himself as an artist and tried to continue the tradition of marine and landscape painting developed by his 19th-century predecessors Thomas Birch, Thomas Cole and Winslow Homer. His 1912 work Winter Afternoon is a good example of a painter trying to hold on to 19th-century realism in an age when modernism and abstraction were becoming the dominant styles of American painting. (left: Sunset, 1910, pastel) Davis's graphic works consist primarily of etchings, hand-colored prints and block prints that echo the subject matter of his paintings. His linoleum block prints Horse...
