About the Item

A proper meal on a pronvençal table, eggs and pastry, large glass pitcher and a vase, all in brown, gray, and beige background. The monochromatic use of color is in Flemish tradition with a trail of a realistic rendition. Oil on canvas with a proper stylish frame. “Marcel Pire” Signed on lower left. Frame: 46,45 in (118 cm) x 38,58 in (98 cm) Canvas: 39,37 in (100 cm) x 31,49 in (80 cm) Marcel Pire (1913 - 1981), Post-Impressionism, was born in 1913 at Brussels and died at Opheylissem. He painted mainly still lifes, but also landscapes, flowers, African scenes, nudes and portraits. He was a pupil of Delville and Bastien at the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, winning prizes in painting. Pire traveled in France, Spain and Norway. Stayed in the Belgian Congo from 1951 to 1961. After several other trips (South Africa, Egypt, Nubian desert), he returned to Belgium for good in 1965. He started to exhibit in 1936, appearing in 1937 at the Salon des Artistes Indépendant de Paris. He exhibited in 1937 at Moulu in Brussels, in 1947 in Stockholm, in 1958 at the Mont des Arts Gallery in Brussels. In addition to paintings inspired by his knowledge of the Congo and Africa, and still lifes, he painted portraits of personalities of his time, notably that of Princess Clementine, daughter of King Leopold II, and that of the Governor of the National Bank. Died in 1981 in Opheylissem. Today, his paintings can be found in private and public collections, including in museums in Brussels, Belgian State Tervuren, Musée Royal de l’Afrique centrale.
