Sale information

Orientalist art is a theme in which painters depict scenes and landscapes according to their vision of the Orient. The Orient is a myth that the 18th century enturbed in its "turqueries" by artists who had often neither traveled nor lived in these countries. This unreal dazzle was gradually brought closer to travelers thanks to the development of transportation in the first third of the 19th century. In this way, painting gave shape and color to these countries dreamed of by Europe. Indeed, this sale focuses on painters who lived and traveled, particularly in the Maghreb countries, such as Jean Hainaut and Jean Gaston Mantel for Morocco; Addison Thomas Millar and Louis Abel Truchet for Algeria; and Max Moreau and Marcel Thibaut for Tunisia. In addition, this sale offers a look at ceramics (lots 127 to 136) and textiles (lots 117 to 121) from the 19th to 20th centuries, widely brought back as souvenirs of travel, as gifts or to recreate an oriental myth. Beyond these painters, it is also the subjects evoked that make up the diversity of this sale, such as studies, portraits, landscapes, city scenes, still lifes and ronde-bosse. Among these subjects, we can cite L'étalon blanc, le lévrier et l'ecuyer by Alfred Couverchel (lot 24), which offers a reflection, if not a decisive influence on Western equestrian art; Suréda's portraits, such as Portrait de femme aux oiseaux (lot 145), which depicts feminine grace through his style; or Jean Gaston Mantel (lots 170-171), then in demand to promote Moroccan tourism, who makes the most of his everyday subjects in his medina paintings...
