Elie Anatole Pavil (1873-1948)

Nato a Odessa, Elie Anatole Pavil arrivò a Parigi nel 1892 e si dedicò a catturarne l'atmosfera su tela.

Per la maggior parte dei successivi cinquant'anni dipinse i caffè, le belle donne, i gruppi jazz e gli atelier di artisti di Parigi.

I suoi dipinti mostrano una conoscenza intima degli abitanti delle strade e dei vicoli di Montmartre.

Eleganti coppie che ballano, bellissime modelle in posa, uomini che lavorano che finiscono la giornata con un drink al bar, tutto è stato catturato nelle composizioni attentamente bilanciate di Pavil, molte delle quali mostrano la distinta influenza di Degas e Renoir.

Jeff Rowland, 1964 | Il pittore Romantico della pioggia

• "Credo che se hai intenzione di fare qualcosa di creativo dovresti arrivare al cuore di esso, e spesso mi siedo fuori a disegnare sotto la pioggia per vedere in prima persona come rimbalza sui tetti delle auto e sul terreno.

La pioggia che cade crea riflessi straordinari da auto e lampioni, e ho sviluppato una tecnica di punteggiatura della vernice con un vecchio pennello da decoratore che riesce a lasciare segni di vernice non vincolati ad un motivo uniforme. I peli spaccati di questa vecchia spazzola permettono ai tratti di diventare pioggia".

Albert Anker (1831-1910) | Genre painter
