After his training in Amsterdam with François Boitard and
Bernard Picart, Jacques Aved started working in Paris for Belle in 1721. He later
entered at the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture Académie royale de
peinture et de sculpture in 1731 and he was appointed councilor after
graduating in 1734 and in 1759, he took part in his last salon. In 1753 he
became a member of the Confrerie Pictura
As an art dealer and collector, he owned one of the most
important collections with works by Italian French and especially Dutch artists
. This collection was sold at auction in 1766 . Carle Van Loo , François
Boucher , Dumont le Romain and Chardin were some of his pupils.

18th C. School Jean Baptiste Greuze Peasant Child in a white
bonnet antiques LA . This exceptional painting of a peasant child in a white
Bonnet is a fine example of the style of Jean Baptiste Greuze, a very well
known and respected French painter of the 18th century.
Although unsigned, this work can be dated to the Greuze
period and contains many of the elements which the artist is known for. The
painting, if not by the hand of Greuze, is mot definitely by one of his close
students. Framed in nicely gilt and decorated wood frame. Documents from the
Metropolitan Museum of Art New York.
The picture of a young peasant is usually referred to as an
allegory of "Innocence," traditionally been equated with a sense of
innocence, gentleness, patience and humility. With such iconography in the
present picture, Greuze thus injects the female sitter with the same
characteristics. The depiction of young women tenderly and calmly sitting,
insinuating their ability to show tender emotion, relates to the 18th century
cult of sensibilité developed by Rousseau and his circle. Greuze's subject thus
appears infused with the subtle combination of sexual innocence and emotional
depth. Same applied to his circle.
This type of subject, employing young girls in various
emotional states, reached its peak in Greuze's career during the 1780s, thus
his circle as well.
Jean Baptiste Greuze was born at Tournus on Aug. 21, 1725.
His early life is undocumented, but he studied painting in Lyons and appeared
in Paris around 1750. He entered the Royal Academy as a student and worked with
Charles Joseph Natoire, a prominent decorative painter. During the 1760's Greuze
achieved a significant reputation with his sentimental paintings of peasants or
lower-class people seen in humble surroundings and in the midst of theatrically
emotional family situations; examples are The Village Bride (1761), The
Father's Curse (1765), and The Prodigal Son (1765).
In 1769 Greuze was admitted to the academy as a genre
painter. Ambitious to become a member of the academy as a history painter,
which was a higher rank, he was so angered by his admission as only a genre
painter that he refused to show his paintings at the academy's exhibitions (the
Salons). However, by that time he was already famous and could afford to ignore
the Salons.
The rising importance of the middle class, and of
middle-class morality, also played a part in the success of Greuze's cottage
genre. His work seemed to preach the homely virtues of the simple life, a
"return to nature," and the honesty of unaffected emotion. The
blatant melodrama of his preaching was not found offensive, and visitors to the
Salons wept in front of his paintings. The intellectuals of the day were
generally opposed to the rococo as a decadent style; rather paradoxically,
Greuze's most influential champion was Denis Diderot, one of the leading
philosophers of the Enlightenment, who hailed Greuze as "the painter of
virtue, the rescuer of corrupted morality." The fashion for simplicity and
the "natural man" penetrated the highest circles, and engravings of
Greuze's work were popular with all classes of society.
In terms of style, Greuze has been linked to neoclassicism.
The complexity of his compositions, however, and his interest in surface
textures place him within the general stylistic pattern of his period. In his
sensual paintings of girls (such as The Morning Prayer and The Milkmaid), with
their veiled eroticism, pale colors, and soft tonality, his connection with the
rococo is most evident. Some of Greuze's best work is to be seen in his portraits
(for example, Étienne Jeaurat), which are often sensitive and direct. Greuze
survived the French Revolution but his fame did not. He died in Paris on March
21, 1805, in poverty and obscurity.

the East in Western art which often blurred the line between fantasy and
reality. The Orientalist art movement reached its height during the 19th
century and is perhaps best known today for its production of impressive oil
paintings and works on paper. These paintings were popular in the 19th century,
as Europeans and North Americans increasingly turned their attentions to
cultures overseas. The works were mostly by male Western artists, made to
satisfy an enormous public interest in the lands of the Middle East and North
Africa.
Many artists
travelled to the places they depicted, whether Constantinople, Jerusalem, Cairo
or Marrakesh. Others travelled no further than Paris or Vienna, using a mixture
of photographs, props and imagination for inspiration. Recurring images
included everything from detailed sketches of everyday life to highly
imaginative scenes of the harem. Interest in Orientalism developed in tandem
with European colonial activity, which allowed soldiers, traders and artists
greater access to the places and peoples of these regions. An important function of Orientalist
painting was to create a visual record of places of interest. Such images were
aimed at a growing market of Europeans and North Americans who either visited
the Middle East and North Africa or were interested in the regions from afar.
Travel was made easier by steamships and trains, so paintings tended to focus
on cities, such as Constantinople, Cairo and Marrakesh, the arrival points for
artists and their potential customers alike. Some images depicted sites of religious
importance, both Christian and Muslim, while others captured the ancient sites
of pre-Islamic history

In the prime of his career, Allori headed one of the
"two most important workshops in Florence in the second half of the 16th
century" (the other being headed by Santi di Tito). He served as First
Consul of the Accademia del Disegno in 1573, and was made head of the Arazzeria
Medicea, Florence's state-owned tapestry workshop, in 1581. Allori also worked,
under the guidance of Giorgio Vasari, among the team of artists who decorated
the Studiolo of Francesco I. He contributed two painted panels, depicting a
Banquet of Cleopatra and a landscape with figures diving for pearls.
The cold and polished appearance of his painted figures
makes them resemble statues as much as living beings. The art historian Simona
Lecchini Giovannoni is more positive, remarking that Allori lends life and
immediacy to his paintings through his minute and realistic depictions of
vegetal motifs (especially flowers), household articles, and textiles of all
kinds; the "grandiose, introverted figures" are thus enabled to
"approach the spectator, not with dialogue and sentiment, but through the
tangible evidence of objects and details"
Among his collaborators was Giovanni Maria Butteri and his
main pupil was Giovanni Bizzelli. Cristofano dell'Altissimo Cesare Dandini Aurelio Lomi John Mosnier,
Alessandro Pieroni, Giovanni Battista Vanni, and Monanni also were his pupils.
He was the father of the painter Cristofano Allori (1577–1621).
In some ways, Allori is the last of the line of prominent
Florentine painters, of generally undiluted Tuscan artistic heritage: Andrea
del Sarto worked with Fra Bartolomeo (as well as Leonardo da Vinci), Pontormo
briefly worked under Andrea, and trained Bronzino, who trained Allori.
Subsequent generations in the city would be strongly influenced by the tide of
Baroque styles pre-eminent in other parts of Italy.

A beautiful large and important masterpiece by Francois
Alfred Delobbe.
A similar artwork old master was sold April 18 2008 at
Sotheby's for $181,000.00 + 20%
Delobbe's two most powerful inspirations were his deep
connection to the French countryside and William Bouguereau, his teacher at the
École des Beaux-Arts. Born in Paris and absorbed in his studies for so many
years, the young artist had few opportunities to escape the city. It was not
until Delobbe journeyed to Concarneau, the native home of his friend and fellow
artist Alfred Guillou, that he began to explore Brittany's rocky fields and
ancient villages. While the region was painted by many of Delobbe's contemporaries,
most famously Jules Breton, Delobbe's Parisian upbringing perhaps made him
particularly sensitive to the effects of the open skies, verdant fields, and
sweeping, sandy beaches. Most of his traveling took place in spring and summer,
and he used the plein air sketches completed then during the winter in his City
Studio. Many of his favorite models came from the areas around Beuzec-cap-Sizun
and Lanriec,
As with his mentor's canvases, Delobbe's smooth brushwork
erases the presence of the painter and creates a balance between immobile,
static form and rich surface details, textures, and colors. Visual evidence
that a rustic, rural way of life remained, such portraits eased late nineteenth
century anxieties about France's growing industrialization. There is a
naturalistic truth to Delobbe's representation of the Characters, the skin
slightly reddened by rough winds and harsh sun, taking a break on a pile of Hay
by her infant and older daughter. Almost effortlessly, from her tool to the
back right side, while on her lap rests a large sifting tool. While this
process was notoriously labor-intensive, Delobbe's working woman reveals little
of the effort involved. With her stoic stance and calm expression the artist
creates an epic figure to join the ranks of Breton's strong-armed field hand in
or the maid busy haying in Julien Dupré's The Harvester (figs 2, 3). In her
solemnity, Delobbe's sifter becomes an icon of rural labor, her powerful
strength and work never ceasing, her connection to the land monumental, yet
sensitively portrayed.

At first look, desert habitats might appear harsh and
desolate with lack of rain and high temperatures . On the contrary, Cactus
plants store water and are home to different desert animals.
The desert landscape is wildly varied – shimmering white
sand dunes, natural rock arches, craters from volcanic eruptions, canyons with
layers of red, green, pink, yellow rocks, mountainous rock formations two
billion years old. Desert oases are filled with lush greenery.
In spring, after winter rains, the deserts bloom with
colorful wildflowers such as depicted in this beautiful work. February to April
is the ideal time when wild flowers are in bloom – red ocotillos, orange
poppies, purple lavender, lupine, heliotrope and sand verbena.

William Lester
Stevens
Born in Rockport,
Massachusetts, Stevens received his initial art training from Parker Perkins, a
local marine painter who charged him fifty cents an hour. He later spent four
years at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts School, where he studied under Edmund Tarbell,
among others. Although influenced by Tarbell, Stevens' wide range of
brushstrokes and impressionist style prevented him from being classified as a
"Tarbellist," as many of Tarbell's followers were labeled.
Stevens joined the
Army in 1917 and was sent to Europe where he continued to paint and sketch.
Upon his return to the United States, he was pleased to discover that Rockport
had become a popular haven for artists. Though he was the only native son among
them, such well-known painters as Frank Duveneck, Childe Hassam, Leon Kroll and
Jonas Lie also recorded the scenery of Rockport, Cape Ann and Gloucester. In
1921, together with fifty other artists, Stevens founded the Rockport Art
Association, primarily to plan exhibitions of the work of outstanding area
artists.
Throughout the
course of his long career, Stevens taught, first in Rockport, then at Boston
University (1925-1926) and Princeton (1927-1929). He later gave lessons and
held one-man shows in Charlotte and Asheville, North Carolina, where his work
was well-received. Southerners particularly enjoyed his views of famous
Southern gardens and cities.
Though the
Depression years were difficult for both the artist and his family, the 1930s
did bring Stevens some measure of commercial and personal success. He did a
number of covers for The American Legion Magazine and won prizes in New Haven,
Springfield and Rockport. In 1934, he abandoned Rockport to the growing tourist
population and moved to Springfield, and then to Conway, Massachusetts, where
he remodeled an old farmhouse and constructed a studio which looked north
towards Mount Monadnock. Except for summer trips made in the 1960s to Lubec,
Maine, Campobello Island and Grand Manan Island, Stevens lived and painted in
Conway for the rest of his life.
Primarily an oil
painter, Stevens also used watercolor and acrylics. Although he was proficient
in all three, oils allowed him greater versatility; more significantly, Stevens
simply liked oils better. A superb craftsman, Stevens painted rapidly and with
assurance, but always took time to find the best vantage point. He understood
the importance of placing himself where he could create the best composition
and "took the liberty of moving objects so that the composition would meet
his desires." This is perhaps why Stevens would later conclude that
"fine pictures are the result of fine minds (Greenfield, p. 13).
Stevens continued to
create views of New England until almost the final day of his life, June 10,
1969. He died in Conway, Massachussetts.

John Linnell was an English engraver, and portrait and
landscape painter. He was a naturalist and a rival to the artist John
Constable. He had a taste for Northern European art of the Renaissance,
particularly Albrecht Dürer. He also associated with Edward Thomas Daniell, and
with William Blake, to whom he introduced the painter and writer Samuel Palmer
and others of the Ancients.
John Linnell was born in Bloomsbury, London on 16 June
1792., where his father was a carver and gilder. He was in contact with artists
from an early age, and by the age of ten was drawing and selling portraits in
chalk and pencil. His first art teacher was the American-born artist Benjamin
West, and he spent a year in the house of the painter John Varley, where
William Hunt and William Mulready were also pupils, and made the acquaintance
of Shelley, Godwin and others. In 1805 he was admitted to study at the Royal
Academy, where he obtained medals for drawing, modelling and sculpture. He was
trained as an engraver, and executed a transcript of Varley's "Burial of
Saul."
In 1808, the 16-year-old Linnell moved into the house of the
painter William Mulready, whose wife had accused him of infidelity with both
other women and boys. Linnell's association with Mulready may have caused the
breakup of Mulready's marriage.
In later life Linnell occupied himself with the burin,
publishing, in 1833, a series of outlines from Michelangelo's frescoes in the
Sistine Chapel, and, in 1840, superintending the issue of a selection of plates
from the pictures in Buckingham Palace, one of them, a Titian landscape, which
he engraved in mezzotint. At first he supported himself mainly by miniature
painting and execution of larger portraits, such as the likenesses of Mulready,
Richard Whately, Peel and Thomas Carlyle. Several of his portraits he engraved
in line and mezzotint.
He painted many subjects like the "St John
Preaching," the "Covenant of Abraham," and the "Journey to
Emmaus," in which, while the landscape is usually prominent the figures
are of sufficient importance to supply the title of the work. But it is mainly
in connexion with paintings of pure landscapes that his name is known. His
works commonly deal with some scene of typical uneventful English landscape,
which is made impressive by a gorgeous effect of sunrise or sunset. They are
full of true poetic feeling, and are rich and glowing in colour.
Linnell commanded large prices for his pictures, and about
1850 he purchased a property at Redhill, Surrey, where he lived till his death
on 20 January 1882, painting with unabated powers until within the last few
years of his life. He devoted himself to painting landscapes notably of the
North Downs and Kentish Weald. His leisure was occupied with a study of the
Bible in the original, and he published several pamphlets and treatises of
Biblical criticism. Linnell was one of the best friends and kindest patrons of
William Blake. He gave him the two largest commissions he received for single
series of designs—£150 for drawings and engravings of The Inventions to the
Book of Job, and a like sum for those illustrative of Dante Aligheri.
He was a friend of the painter Edward Thomas Daniell. A blue
plaque commemorates Linnell at Old Wyldes' at North End, Hampstead. The plaque
mentions that William Blake stayed with Linnell as his guest.
