Gustave Loiseau (1865-1935) Gustave Loiseau (1865-1935) Moret-sur-Loing, The Notre-Dame Church Replicated in the catalogue for the exhibition Gustave Loiseau ? Paysages d'Île-de-France et de Normandie at the Camille Pissarro Museum in 2018 on page 34 French School, oil on cardboard signed bottom left, signed bottom right is the location "Moret" and date "1934" Dimensions : H. 25.2 x W. 15 inches (With frame: H. 32.6 x W. 23.2 inches) Gustave Loiseau was born in 1865 in Paris. He was a landscape, seascape, and urban landscape painter. Loiseau was also a post-impressionist. After his studies at the École des Arts Décoratifs of Paris in 1890, he worked at Pont-Aven (Brittany, France) beside Gauguin. He also knew Maufra and Emile Bernard. In 1893, he will exhibit in Paris at the Salon des Indépendants, and in 1895 he will exhibit at the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. From 1890 to 1896, Loiseau will also take part in exhibitions of post-impressionist painters. After being influenced by the Cloisonnism of Gauguin, he starts to focus more on Post-Impressionism in 1895 which he was influenced by Pissarro, and then by the Divisionism of Seurat. The only thing he keeps from the Cloisonnism technique is a geometric-like construction to his paintings. He brought a softer brushstroke to Post-Impressionism as well as the use of latticework which is what made him unique.

  • Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Acquires Watershed Work by Paul Sérusier Painting Bridges Impressionism and Modern Art
    COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION VIRGINIA MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS 200 N. Arthur Ashe Blvd. I Richmond, Virginia 23220 www.VMFA.museum/pressroom ++++++++++++++FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 27, 2020 Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Acquires Watershed Work by Paul Sérusier Painting Bridges Impressionism and Modern Art Paul Sérusier, The Three-Pond Cottage at Le Pouldu, 1889. Collection of Virginia Museum of Fine Arts ​ ​ Richmond, Virginia––The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA) announced today that it has acquired The Three-Pond Cottage at Le Pouldu, an ambitious painting by Paul Sérusier (1864-1927), a pioneering Post-Impressionist who inspired ​ the Nabis art movement and helped revolutionize 19th-century French art. During the summer of 1888 Sérusier, a student at the Académie Julian, a renowned private art school in Paris, traveled to Pont-Aven (Brittany, northwestern France), a small artist enclave where Paul Gauguin agreed to take him as an apprentice. Rejecting the approach of Impressionists who focused on the light, color and shading to give visual dimension to a subject, Gauguin had already begun to distill subjects to their essence, formed by bold, flat planes of color and contour lines, a style that came to be known as Cloisonnism. Gauguin also delved into Synthetism, a style which sought to explore and visually convey poetry, spirituality and emotion. Working with Gauguin was a ​ transformative experience for Sérusier, helping him expand his own artistic vision. Sérusier returned to Paris with an unfinished work, created under Gaugin’s direction, that reduced a view of Aven River and the adjoining wooded area to its elemental components. The result was profoundly innovative, sensational and influential.

  • Van Gogh's Last Supper: Transforming
    Anistoriton Journal, vol. 14 (2014‐2015) Viewpoints Van Gogh’s Last Supper Transforming “the guise of observable reality” Although little has been written about Café Teras (Fig. 1), it has enraptured the imagination of the general public, becoming one of the world’s most reproduced paintings (Reynolds 2010). Perhaps the accepted, superficial interpretations of this seemingly casual street scene: that it is “something like” the opening description of “drinkers in the harsh, bright lights of their illuminated facades” from Guy de Maupassant’s Bel-Ami (Jansen et al. 2009, l. 678, n. 15) or homage to Louis Anquetin’s Avenue de Clichy: 5 o’clock in the Evening (Welsh- Ovcharov 1981); coupled by the relatively scant description in van Gogh’s existing letters and 20th century art critic Dr. Meyer Schapiro’s slight that it may be “less concentrated than the best of van Gogh” (1980 p. 80), have undermined a more thorough investigation of this luminous subject. ( F(Fig. 1 Café Teras) (Fig. 2 Café Teras, Sketch) Nevertheless, this lack of inquiry seems peculiar for a number of reasons. 1) Café Teras was conceived over several months during his self-imposed isolation in Arles, a time when Vincent, feeling marginalized and alienated, ceaselessly schemed to reconnect with his copains Émile Bernard, Paul Gauguin and others, hoping to found a kind of Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood of twelve “artist-apostles” who, communally, would forge the new Renaissance. 2) It is Vincent’s original “starry night,” composed “on the spot,” painstakingly crafted over several nights while he reported feeling a “terrible need for religion” (Jansen et al.

This work sheet will take you on a discovery of the XIXth century. A major turning point in history, the XIXth century (from 1815 to 1914 approximately) was above all THE century of Europe and the second industrial revolution. Following on from the French Revolution of 1789, the old social and political structures lost momentum in favour of profound transformations. From the Académie above all else 1830 marked the definitive end of the Restoration period, during which monarchic sovereignty was once again topical in relation to kings Louis XVIII and Charles X, brothers of Louis XVI. It was at this time that the July Monarchy was established, headed by the house of Orléans, a younger branch of the Bourbons. At the same time, Academic art established itself as the official style, dictated and recognised by the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris This gave way to a conventional movement that had people talking about it until around 1880... Behind the doors of the Académie The Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris was considered at the time as the most impressive of all. How was it structured? It brought together various academics and artists in control, as well as producing works of art. Of course, they also protected their creators and ensured their renown. The Académie operated like an art school with an entrance test, a training cycle, a "final examination" in the form of a project, a study trip to Italy for the most deserving students to discover the Renaissance painters, a salon where the most conventional works were exhibited and then sold..
