he 19th and early 20th centuries are particularly favorable for collectingT and investing in for several reasons. First, the era is one of the richest art historically, encompassing both the height of the Academic tradition and the beginning of Modern Art with the emergence of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. Second, due to the large amount of quality artwork produced by artists during this era, many opportunities remain for collectors to acquire exquisite quality artworks at very reasonable prices. Last, artwork from the 19th and early 20th centuries has withstood the test of time in terms of quality, value, and interest. Due to its beauty and high quality, art from the 19th century continues to garner the interest of scholars, collectors, and investors.

During the 19th century, patronage of the arts changed. There was a rising bourgeoisie and a greater international awareness of pictorial ideas. Genre triumphed! There was now a fascination with everyday scenes—in images of intimate and trivial domestic life, country experiences, and the working class. With the Industrial Revolution, a new, large segment of the population began accumulating great wealth. Immense fortunes were made and patrons were plentiful. Artists could choose a subject for the sheer purpose of pleasing the eye or amusing the viewer. Preferred subjects included cavaliers, beauties, military, adorable children, and charming animals.
Gustave DeJonghe: a famous painter of elegant interior genre scenes concentrating on the upper middle class and often focusing on the lives of fashionable women. De Jonghe presented his sitters in elegant costumes, typically with a warm and welcoming disposition. Like Boldini, Sargent, and Tissot, he depicted elegant ladies at leisure or everyday life.
*Greatly cherished was the idea of “home.” The gentle wife in the tranquility of beautiful surroundings, lounging with her endearing children and adorable pets, became an appealing subject. Beauty was heightened by dress and haute couture. This exciting Belle Epoque style is extremely appealing to today’s collector.

Anthonore Christensen Still Life with Flowers on a Mossy Bank, 1874 Danish, 1849-1926 24” x 30” fr. ,QLWLDOHG/5RF In The Legend of Sir Perceval, Cowper depicts a knight’s tale from Le Morte d’Arthur. Sir Perceval, a knight of the Round Table, has taken an oath to assist people in distress. He has been stopped by a raven-haired temptress, who tries to seduce him with a table loaded with exotic meats, fruit, and wine.
The artist depicts the exact instant in which Sir Perceval glances at his sword and is reminded of his knightly oath to King Arthur and God.
*The painting is loaded with symbols: the boar’s head represents lust; the hyssop plant—a powerful purgative— is equated with penitence and humility; and the mouse represents the ability to overcome great odds.
The Pre-Raphaelites were a group of Victorian British artists who worked in a meticulous style and drew on British history for subject matter.

Lhermitte worked both in oil and pastel, and his scenes of rural life are most beautiful when they are executed in pastel, capturing the scintillating interaction between light and atmosphere in the countryside.
Jean François Raffaelli Although Raffaelli was trained in the French Academic tradition of Gérôme, the real influence on his style came from the light color and light-infused technique of the Impressionists, with whom he exhibited in several group shows. Raffaelli is known for his street scenes that depict the glamour of fin-de-siècle Paris, as well as his picturesque views of the French countryside and seaports, all of which are infused with natural light and bright, dramatic details.

Pastel Gustave Loiseau was known as one of the most sincere interpreters of the French countryside. Although he was a close friend of the painters Maxime Maufra and Paul Gaugin, Loiseau most identified stylistically with the Impressionists, especially Claude Monet, both of who favored painting landscapes en plein air and directly on the canvas.
Like the Impressionists, Loiseau was represented by the art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel, enabling him to travel extensively throughout the regions of Île-de-France, Normandy, Brittany, and the Dordogne, where he worked out-of-doors, producing spontaneous, light-infused landscapes. “I try to reproduce as best I can the impression I get from nature,” commented Loiseau, “I am guided only by instinct.”

Lebasque experimented with several Post-Impressionist innovations, including divisionism, fauvism, and intimism, before creating a style uniquely his own. He combined the bright and boldly contrasting colors of Matisse’s fauves with the intimate domestic scenes of Pierre Bonnard and the planar compositions of Cézanne to create a truly individual and early modern style.
