Henri Miloch
Ecole de Paris Mid 20th Century: Wartime Figures

1940's

About the Item

Paris: A Wartime Study of Figures Relaxing in Springtime by Henri Miloch (1898-1979) Unsigned watercolour, graphite and gouache painting on artist's paper, unframed Sheet: 12.25 x 9.5 inches Delightful group of sketches in paint by the highly regarded painter, Henri Miloch. The sheet depicts female and male figures relaxing in what may have been the first sunshine of Spring, during the final few months of World War II in Paris. Miloch most probably observed the figures in a park setting. This one is unsigned but is dated 15th April '45 in his hand and using his commonly seen date notation of the month in roman numerals. This work forms part of a collection we currently hold by Miloch. Henri Miloch was born in Trieste (Italy) in 1898 but studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was a member of the Society of French Artists. His life and work was very much centred in Brittany, in north west France, much of his work portrays Breton maritime life in the various ports, and local town observations, especially in the Concarneau area where he worked and exhibited for much of his artistic career. From 1959 he also had a workshop in Tours (Val de Loire). condition report: The sheet has rough edges, especially on the left side as there is a staple in the paper indicating this was torn from a sketchbook. The sheet has even mild toning throughout but the paint colour is good, clear and strong. There are a couple of paint "splodges" close to the lower edge, made by the artist.

Black Woman's Beauty by Lu Haskew Watercolor Portrait 10x8" image size 20x18" framed (behind glass) Shipping price includes the custom packing necessary for safe transport of fine art. ABOUT THE ARTIST: Lu Haskew 1921-2009 "Life is good to me. Being able to go to my studio five days weekly and paint for several hours, living in a supportive community, having family and friends who encourage me--all have contributed to helping me become an artist. Being fortunate to study with some of the artists I admire has kept me painting from the garden, people and my favorite things. With the support of galleries, teaching and doing demos, how could I do anything else? My goal is to try to be the best I can be by always being a student, looking for new ideas and stretching my horizons." Upon retirement from a 33-year teaching career, Lu rented a studio in Loveland and began concentrating on her oil and watercolor painting. Learning from artists she had followed and admired throughout the years her painting became a full time career that lasted 17-years. Beginning in 1992, she studied with renowned painters Richard Schmid, Clyde Aspevig, Joyce Pike...
