Large Marine Oil-on-Canvas Breton Fisherman in Original Frame, 19th Century

Large Marine Oil-on-Canvas Breton Fisherman in Original Frame, 19th Century

This magnificent oil painting on wood from the late 19th century, signed by the artist D. Fristany, depicts a fishing trip in Brittany in the early hours of the morning. In the foreground, a small boat still moored is preparing to leave, with a group of men busy with nets and fish pots.Beyond it, a large two-masted hourque emerges from the harbour, with more boats already in the distance, setting sail. You can feel the swell on the sea and the rising wind, the sky seems to be darkening with grey clouds, and you can see the carefully worked chiaroscuro/obscuro, which gives the painting great strength and realism. The play of light on the moor to the left and in the foreground also helps to create a pointed perspective.This is a typical turn-of-the-century fishing scene in Brittany, both in terms of the types of boats depicted and the fishermens clothing. The artist must have painted it on the spot, as it exudes great vivacity and very precise detail, particularly on the boats.The painting is in its original frame, with a copper plate bearing the artists name and the title of the painting in old French ‘Pescheurs breton’.Size Without frame : 63x75 cmWith frame : 74x86 cm

Myst-RZ, The tree, signed and numeroted 110, 2024

Myst-RZ, The tree, signed and numeroted 110, 2024

With his series of “American” works, artist Myst-RZ plunges us into a world partly inspired by the works of Edward Hopper and David Hockney.In this series, the works stretch out like long travellings, sometimes depicting hushed, intimate atmospheres populated by solitary souls, sometimes sun-drenched terraces with pools, with Mediterranean accents and clean lines.A certain look at the individual is reflected in these works, where it seems that lonely souls, solitary riders and “every man for himself” rub shoulders without ever really meeting. Myst-RZ reinvents the images of the past using ultra-modern digital tools, taking us on a journey towards a visual culture that aims to be timeless.This series is numbered out of 10, and here we present the first numbers of each print. Beautiful Fine Art print on textured Hahnemühle paper with high-quality inkjet coating.Signed by Myst-RZ and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by the artist.

Aboriginal Painting `Ngutjul` by Pantjiya Nungurrayi (1936-)

Aboriginal Painting `Ngutjul` by Pantjiya Nungurrayi (1936-)

In this extraordinary painting, Pantjiya Nungurrayi celebrates, using a three-colour palette, the sites for which she holds ritual guardianship. In this instance, she portrays Ngutjul, a sacred waterhole where, in the Dreamtime, a group of women established a camp. The canvas, structured with concentric circles, depicts the site as viewed from above. The artwork originates from the Papunya Tula art center and dates back to 2010. A certificate of authenticity will be provided to the buyer.Pantjiya Nungurrayi was born around 1936, in the desert near Haasts Bluff. Her half-brother is Shorty Lungkata, one of the significant artists involved in the creation of the Aboriginal art movement. Pantjiya recalls her nomadic life and receiving food rations from white people travelling through the desert on camels. She married George Tjangala, and in the 1960s, the family moved to Papunya, where the artistic movement would begin in 1971. Her husband likely painted a few canvases from the early 1970s (some uncertainties arise due to name changes and some individuals having multiple names). He continued painting until his death in 1989. During the final months of his life, Pantjiya likely assisted him in the pointillist technique. However, women only had the opportunity to paint from 1994 onwards in a joint project between artists from Haasts Bluff and those from the Western Desert, when they gained access to painting. Two years later, the cooperative finally provided an opportunity for women. Pantjiya waited until 1997 to paint a few small formats, and after several months, she enthusiastically launched herself into the artistic adventure. She would establish herself as one of the significant artists from the Western Desert.
