He started his apprenticeship at the Beaux-Arts of Parma, under the supervision of Paolo Toschi. During his three learning years, Alberto Pasini specialized in landscapes painting and then mainly composed drawings and lithography. In 1851, the political situation of Italy pushed the young twenty years old Pasini to leave for Paris. There, he met Eugène Delacroix, Gabriel Decamps and many other painters from the Barbizon school. During his first participation to the French Salon of Art in 1853, he exhibited a lithography named The evening that was soon to be noticed by Théodore Chassériau who offered him to join his studio. There, he reinforced his oil painting technique, and most importantly showed an eager interest for orientalist subjects. Then, in 1855, Chassériau proposed him to replace him in a journey in Persia along with French diplomat Prosper Bourée. The painter stayed there for two years and received numerous orders from the Shah.

  • European Art & Old Masters: 500 Years (1624) Lot 14
    European Art & Old Masters: 500 Years (1624) February 27, 2019 EDT Lot 14 Estimate: $25000 - $40000 (plus Buyer's Premium) ALBERTO PASINI (ITALIAN 1826-1899) THE BLACKSMITH'S COURTYARD Signed 'A. Pasini' bottom left, oil on canvas 9 5/8 x 7 5/8 in. (24.4 x 19.4cm) Provenance: Private Collection, Pennsylvania. NOTE: Although trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Parma, Italian-born artist Alberto Pasini moved to Paris in 1851 to refine his technique. There, he befriended other artists including Eugéne Fromentin (1820-1876), Jules Dupré (1811- 1889) and Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867), all of whom contributed to the development of his palette and plein-air philosophy. In 1853, the artist was admitted to the Paris Salon, which enabled him to join the workshop of the famous painter Théodore Chassériau (1819-1856), who introduced him to Orientalism. When Chassériau was too ill to accompany Ambassador Nicolas Prosper Bourée (1811-1886) on a diplomatic mission to Persia in February 1855, Pasini replaced him, thus embarking on the first of many journeys to the East, including memorable stops in Turkey and Egypt. Back in Paris, his artistic qualities were quickly acknowledged. His dazzling depictions of bazaars, market places and mosques made him a fortune, and he earned several honors such as the Légion d'Honneur in 1878. Of Pasini, critic Virgilio Colombo said: "[He] faithfully reproduces the architectural accessories, which sparkle in the sun and bathe in the blue shadows: in this, he is unrivaled and shows extraordinary ingenuity to create huge painting in small canvases. What skill in painting (...) thoughtful knights, with sumptuous trappings, damask-decorated weapons, kiosks, market and military camps, the intimate recesses of the harem, the profiles of city with jagged spires and minarets (...) The oriental scenes are exquisitely treated." Featured in the present lot are four gentlemen caring for their horses at the blacksmith's shop.

The son of a modest family, he started his artistic education at the Ecole des BeauxArts in Angers, before moving to Paris where he studied in the Studio of the portraitist Leon Bonnat at the Beaux-Arts Academy. He began to exhibit regularly at the annual art society exhibitions and at the Paris Salon. Meanwhile, he assisted the artist Ferdinand Humbert with the decorative murals at the Pantheon for 6 years. Very soon he decided to give up his studies and befriended the artists Paul Signac, Bonnard and Vuillard, cofounders of the Nabis group and the " Intimists " group, who favoured the quietness and lightness of domestic subject matters, and from whom he would learn the significance of a colour theory which stressed the use of complementary colours in shading. He also met Camille Pissaro, in 1902, and Renoir. Both would have a large influence on his work. Travelling abroad, he went to London where he discovered the work of Turner. A friend of Matisse, Manguin and Rouault, he did not share their style, violent colours and strong brushstoke, but stayed closer to the subtlety of Impressionism until 1905. In 1906, the discovery, (thanks to his friend Manguin), of the South of France and its very specific light would lead him to a drastic change of style.

  • Padovanino, Fautore Di Una Rea- Zione Accademica E Tizianesco-Classicistica Agli Eccessi Della Pittura Tardomanierista
    P Paál, László (Zám 1846 - Charenton 1879). Studiò all’Accademia di Vienna. Una mostra tenuta nel palazzo del ghiaccio di Monaco (1869) gli rivelò l’arte di Courbet e dei pittori di Barbizon. Nel 1870 si trovava nei Paesi Bassi; successivamente operò a Düsseldorf. Invitato da Munkác- sy, suo amico, si recò nel 1873 in Francia dove visse fino alla morte. I suoi paesaggi, influenzati dalla scuola di Bar- bizon, hanno una sobria veemenza che rammenta l’arte di Munkácsy, e si segnalano per il tono sincero e tragico e l’esecuzione sobria e accurata: In fondo al bosco, 1873; Pioppo, 1875 (Museo di Budapest). È pure rappresentato nei musei di Düsseldorf (km) e dell’Aja (Mesdag). (dp). Paalen, Wolfgang (Vienna 1905 - Messico 1959). Formatosi presso Julius Meier-Graefe e Hans Hofmann, studiò pittura in Italia e a Berlino prima di stabilirsi in Francia nel 1928. Attratto sulle prime dal gruppo Abstraction-Création, aderì nel 1935 al surrealismo. Notato da Roland Penrose e Chri- stian Zervos in occasione di una mostra alla Gall. Vignon (Parigi 1934), fu ammesso a collaborare ai «Cahiers d’art». Dal 1938 praticò il procedimento del fumage (in- terpretazione delle tracce lasciate dalla fiamma di una candela), da cui trasse effetti assai vicini a quanto più tardi verrà definito «astrattismo lirico» (Autofago, 1938: Parigi, coll. priv.). I suoi dipinti sono una sorta di incubi fantastici ove compaiono forme disarticolate, personaggi disincarnati (Paesaggio pietrificato, 1938: Parigi, coll. Le- febvre-Foinet; Combattimento tra i principi saturnini III, 1938: Parigi, coll. Jacques Tronche).

  • Circassian Cavalrymen Outside a Gate Pen and Brown Ink and Brown Wash
    Alberto PASINI (Busseto 1826 - Cavoretto 1899) Circassian Cavalrymen Outside a Gate Pen and brown ink and brown wash. Signed and dated A. Pasini .80. at the lower left. 264 x 349 mm. (10 3/8 x 13 3/4 in.) [sheet] This is a depiction of a type of subject that Alberto Pasini treated in paintings, drawings and lithographs throughout his career. (Indeed, in 1880 - the date of this drawing - he exhibited a large canvas entitled Cavaliers circassiens, attendant leur chef à la porte d’un monument byzantin at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris.) Pasini’s interest in Circassian soldiers as subjects for his paintings is a reflection of a fascination for these singular people shared by many visitors to the Near East. The term ‘Circassian’, derived from the Turkish word ‘Çerkes’, has long been used to refer to the peoples of the Northwestern Caucasus, notably the Adyghe, the Abkhaz and the Ubykh. With the Tsarist Russian conquest of their territory in the first half of the 19th century, many Circassians were deported to Turkey, where Pasini would first have seen them. A fierce people with a warlike ethic, greatly admired for their courage in battle, many Circassians became military leaders in Turkey, the Middle East and Russia after the diaspora. Circassian men wore a cherkessa; a long, fitted coat with pockets for ammunition cartridges across the chest, together with a round fur hat and knee-high leather boots. Their exotic appearance was described by one 19th century visitor to the region; ‘I was first struck with their fine martial appearance, athletic forms, regular features, and the proud consciousness of freedom displayed in every glance and movement.

Born in Busseto, he trained at the Academy of Fine Art of Parma and in the ateliers of Pierre-Luc-Charles and Eugène Cicéri in Paris. He traveled and painted extensively throughout Turkey, Persia, Armenia, Egypt, Arabia, and Istanbul, among other locations. His work is represented in the permanent collections of such prestigious public institutionsREPORT as the Museo Nacional Thyssen- Bornemisza, Madrid. The subject work is a landscape featuring an urban port with small fishing boats docked along the left side of a lightly rippled sea-green body of water; a row of architectural formations lines the distant horizon. The work is executed with loose, painterly brushwork in a restricted palette. As the signature at lower left was found to deviate slightly from known versions of the artist's signature, the work has been indicated to be attributed to Alberto Pasini. Further art historical research and/or the undertaking of a formal authentication procedure would be necessary to conclude authorship. For the purpose of the present assignment, the work has been valued in relation to past auction sale prices of comparable works by the hand of the artist.
