R. Chapelain-Midy, French artist (1904, Paris - 1992)
His training began at the École des Beaux-Arts and the Carmon studio.
He later continued his studies at the Académie de Montparnasse.
In 1927, he exhibited at the Salon d'Automne in Paris, and in 1929 at the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon des Tuileries.
A free-spirited artist, Chapelain was also a brilliant designer and stage designer, qualities that undoubtedly inform his pictorial work. It could be said that his projection was directed toward becoming a Renaissance man, a period he deeply admired and on which his artistic creation is based. The 17th century, and especially the French artist Poussin (1594-1665), were also an object of admiration and a subject of study for the artist. An influential artist of his time, his style takes on a theatrical and highly aesthetic undertone due to his numerous artistic qualities.
At a time when pictorial isms were gaining traction, he reflected a personal style true to himself, starting from a classical, balanced, and measured scheme of volumes, and entering into a chromatic scale of great luminous and symbolic effect.
He flirts with surrealism and symbolism.
He focuses on still lifes and landscapes. This work we present falls into the first category. It expressly manifests its theatrical presentation with a background that could be a theater curtain, from which a rich floral composition, full of symbolism and classical reminiscences of 17th-century Dutch still life painting, emerges from the darkness. The work speaks to us; you only have to listen...
A sublime and beautiful work, exquisite and of high pictorial quality.

Roger Chapelet
Roger Chapelet was in love with the sea. Young, adventurous, eager to learn and to see, he embarked on several sailing ships, including the famous codfish tall ships of St-Malo in Brittany. Chapelet crossed the North Atlantic numerous times to Greenland and Newfoundland. In 1936, he was awarded the appointment of "Peintre de la Marine" by the French Cultural Ministry, upon recommendation of the Governors of the cultural board of the French Navy. From 1939–49, he served in the French Navy and the Merchant Navy. Since 1946, Chapelet devoted his full time to his artistic career with regular sailing voyages, including quite a few on the "Sagres" which represented the Portuguese Navy at the Bicentennial parade of tall ships in New York. The artist is an accomplished sailor, who loves and respects everything which belongs to the sea. Tall ships in particular. His paintings reflect his experience and his feelings. The artist is in full control of his talent to create a balanced and harmonious composition. Color, light and motion are Chapelet's forte. Through soft, tender, yet vibrant colors, the artist shows his French heritage. He expresses his feelings in elegant simplicity, yet with a definite maritime character.

French Painting "Dahlias and Camellias" Paul Bazé, midcentury France
By Paul Robert Brock
Located in Valladolid, ES
Impressive and very beautiful oil on panel made by Paul Robert Bazé, an artist of French origin. It represents a still life with a bouquet of flowers in the foreground on a dark background. It mainly shows dahlias and camellias, which give the work its name. The traditional still life genre shows its evolution here. It presents the characteristic style of the genre to which it corresponds, realistic and meticulous, especially noticeable in the way it works with the different qualities of the flowers and leaves. The dark background is also inherited from the still life genre, with a marked dark interest reflected in the dark backgrounds. Signed in the lower left corner.
Paul Robert Bazé (1901-1985) was born in Paris, although he soon moved to Bayonne and then to Bordeaux, where he was a student of Paul Quinsac...
