About the Item
A fine original pastel portrait of a beautiful young woman in vibrant colors, representing a modern interpretation of a classical subject .
She is portrayed as aristocratic, sensual, seductive and demure with a sense of grace, beauty and reserve. The intensity of the subject's expression exudes a positive image and confidence in her own beauty.
Gustave Brisgand (1867-1944) was a French artist who evolved from landscape painting to specializing in portraits, particularly of women and female nudes.
He executed some very attractive portraits and this pastel is one of his most beautiful and notable works. Brisgand used an assortment of mediums and was very comfortable with the use of oils, crayon, chalk, charcoal and pastel.
This particular pastel dating to around 1930, showcases Brisgand's fascination with feminine beauty and elegance . The model featured in this portrait appears in several of his other works, indicating a recurring subject in his art. By repeatedly featuring the same model in various works, Brisgand likely explored different aspects of femininity through his art.
The artist's focus on portraiture indicates his keen interest in capturing individual character and beauty.
Brisgand's artistic style aligns with the French Impressionist and Modern movements of his time. The portrait exemplifies Brisgand's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects.
Brisgand's use of pastel showcases his versatility as an artist. This material allow for both precise detailing and soft, atmospheric effects, which would be particularly effective in rendering the delicate features of the subject. The choice of media also reflects the Art Deco period in which the work was created, known for its emphasis on luxury and exoticism.
Gustave Brisgand resided in France throughout his lifetime, and enjoyed a long and prosperous career as an artist. His works have been featured in numerous auctions, demonstrating the enduring interest in his art.
