Oil on panel, dimensions: 33 x 24 cm. Gustave Loiseau went every summer to Pont-Aven, staying at the Gloanec pension with his friends Maxime Maufra, Henry Moret and Émile Bernard. Paul Gauguin gave him advice there. In 1894 he participated in the 6th, 7th and 8th exhibitions of impressionist and symbolist painters at Le Barc de Bouteville in Paris, then signed a contract with Paul Durand-Ruel who exhibited his paintings in his gallery in New York. ustave Loiseau, like Camille Pissarro, painted numerous canvases representing Pontoise: the Hermitage district, the banks of the Oise, the quay of Ponthuis, the cathedral of Saint-Maclou and its region: Auvers, Nesles-la-Vallée, Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône, Osny. He also painted landscapes of Brittany, Normandy, Moret-sur-Loing and Paris. Gustave Loiseau is part of the post-impressionist movement. He painted, directly in nature, many scenes of rural life and the countryside, few portraits, being interested however in characters in movement, such as market scenes, or in activity, such as dockers, and, especially towards the end of his life, he painted many still lifes. Loiseau's paintings reveal his passion for the seasons, illustrating everything from the beginning of spring to the last harvests of autumn, through scenes of snow or frost in winter. His series also feature cliffs, harbors or churches and are influenced by those of Claude Monet. Provenance: important Spanish private collection, Barcelona.

Du reste, si ces messieurs sont dans l´attention d´en faire l´exposition je m´en entendrais avec eux a leur retour, d´autant qu´il ne me sera guerre possible de vous les livrer avant le......de janvier, il n´y a donc pas presse´ (Translation: ´Here are the measurements of the six paintings of Vetheuil which I have to deliver to you, there are four which measure 92 by 89 and two which measure 92 by 81, as for the titles there is none since the 6 paintings represent 6 sights of Vetheuil. Moreover, if these gentlemen are interested in exhibiting them, I will make arrangements with them on their return, especially as it will not be possible for me to deliver them to you before January ......, so there is no rush´).(ii) A.L.S., Claude Monet, three pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 15th November 1914, to ´Cher ami´, on black bordered mourning stationery, in bold pencil. The artist writes during World War I, and in the months after his elder son, Jean, had died at the untimely age of 46, also making a reference to Pierre-Auguste Renoir, in part, ´Merci a ces dames et a vous de votre pensee dont je suis tres touche. J´espere que vous etes tous bien et que bientot on pourra se revoir. Je suis alle a Paris il y a quelques jours et j´ai passe un moment avec Renoir et votre cousin assure que Paris est donc lugubre surtout quand la nuit vient. On dit cependant que chaque jour la vie reprend. Ici nous allons bien et tout est calme, seule la vue des blesses jete un terrible.......Nous avons de bonnes nouvelles de ceux des notres qui sont partis. Michel va passer bientot parti la revision et surement partira a sa grande joie mais quel surcroit d´angoisse pour moi. Madame Jean Monet se joint a moi pour envoyer a ces dames notre meilleur souvenir´ (Translation: ´Thank you to these ladies and to you for your kind words, which I really appreciate. I hope you are all well and that we can meet up again soon. I went to Paris a few days ago and spent some time with Renoir and your cousin assures me that Paris is gloomy, especially when night comes. They say, however, that every day life picks up again. Here we are well and all is calm, only the sight of the wounded throws a terrible gloom.......We have good news of those of ours who have left. Michel will soon go for his check-up and will certainly leave, which will be a great joy for him, but what extra anguish for me. Madame Jean Monet joins me in sending these ladies our best wishes´)(iii) A.L.S., Claude Monet, four pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 9th August 1917, to ´Cher ami´, in bold pencil. Monet writes of the problems he is facing with his work, at a time when he was painting a number of his famous canvasses featuring water lillies, in part, ´Helas, vous allez me maudire je suis oblige de manquer a mes promesses maudissez moi et plaignez moi aussi car jamais je n´ai eu une aussi mauvaise saison de travail par suite du temps si variable que vous et il me faut tacher de me tirer du travail entrepris en luttant jusqu´au bout avec l´esperance d´un temps meilleur. Je vous assure que je suis tres malheureux et me prive du grand plaisir de vous aller voir. Dites le bien a votre frere mais a mon age il ne m´est pas permis de prendre un repos. Qui sait si l´an prochain ma sante me permettra de continuer a peindre dehors. Excusez-moi et m´en voulez pas Blanche et moi nous nous faisons une joie de ce voyage pres de vous. Blanche remercie Madame Mathilde et son affectueuse lettre´ (Translation: ´Alas, you are going to curse me I am obliged to break my promises curse me and pity me too because I have never had such a bad working season because the weather is so changeable and I must try to get through the work I have started by fighting to the end in the hope of better weather. I assure you that I am very unhappy and am depriving myself of the great pleasure of going to see you. Tell your brother well, but at my age I am not allowed to rest. Who knows if next year my health will allow me to continue painting outside. Excuse me and don't blame me, Blanche and I are looking forward to this trip to see you. Blanche thanks Madame Mathilde for her affectionate letter´).(iv) A.L.S., Claude Monet, three pages, 8vo, Giverny par Vernon, 6th December 1917, to ´Cher ami´, in bold pencil. The artist writes, in part, ´Deux mots en hate pour vous remercier de l´envoi de bobines recues ce matin et que j´envoie aussitot a Michel reparti depuis quelques jours. Merci pour lui et pour moi. Je voudrais moi aussi avoir le plaisir de vous aller voir mais je ne sais vraiment pas quand cela me sera possible vue la rarete serieuse cette fois de l´essence et craignant toujours les attentes dans les gares.

Enfin et ayant passe des jours noirs de veritables souffrances et ne pensant qu´a la fin. C´est idiot mais je ne puis me maitriser dans ces moments, voila donc mon excuse, merci.

MONET CLAUDE: (1840-1926) French Impressionist painter. A very fine A.L.S., Claude Monet, three pages, 8vo, on his printed stationery of Giverny par Vernon, Eure, 1st June [1917], to Georges Clemenceau, in bold purple pencil, in French. In his characteristic writing Monet writes a letter to his lifelong friend Georges Clemenceau, referring to a travel they plan together to visit the bombed Reims cathedral, and explains that he wishes to make a quick visit to his son but as usual wishes to be back at work on Monday, and states in part `Cher ami, je n´ai pu vous répondre plus tôt hier. Les distributions postales, ici, n´étant pas très régulières. Ai bien reçu ce matin votre 2eme dépêche, c´est entendu pour 7h dimanche rue Franklin... Je serai bien aise de savoir vers quelle heure vous pensez que nous [serons] de retour à Paris ne tenant pas à passer deux nuits à Paris, et voulant me mettre au travail dès lundi matin. Serait-il possible que je puisse embrasser mon fils qui se trouve à peu de distance de Reims entre Fismes et Craonne, exactement à Ventelay... Quelle joie ce serait et pour lui et pour moi. Vous verrez si c´est possible...´ (Translation: "Dear friend, I was unable to reply to you earlier yesterday. The postal deliveries here are not very regular. I received your 2nd dispatch this morning, it is understood for 7am Sunday rue Franklin... I would be very happy to know around what time you think we [will be] back in Paris, not wanting to spend two nights in Paris, and wanting to get to work on Monday morning. Would it be possible for me to kiss my son who is a short distance from Reims between Fismes and Craonne, exactly at Ventelay... What a joy that would be for him and for me. You will see if it is possible...") Accompanied by the original envelope, addressed in Monet´s hand, postmarked and stamped. Also including the permanent Certificate of exportation issued by the French Ministry of culture. In very good condition. VG to EXGeorges Clemenceau (1841-1929) French Politician. Nicknamed "the Tiger". Clemenceau served as French Prime Minister from 1906 to 1909, and again from 1917 to 1920 and did much for the French victory during the First World War. Monet and Clemenceau met at the age of 20, but their friendship strengthened at the age of 50 when Clemenceau was finally introduced by the art critic Gustave Geoffroy in Monet’s house, in Giverny. Indeed, it was difficult to be greeted by Monet in his private paradise. Claude Monet was secretive and liked to work alone. But Clemenceau was an art lover, and the friendship between these two was unavoidable. They shared the same ideas on different things, like education and politics.Claude Monet offered to his friend Clemenceau the famous painting "Le Bloc" ("Block of Creuse rocks”), now in the Royal collection in England. The title given to the painting refers to a sentence pronounced by Clemenceau in a speech of 1891 “the French Revolution is a block”. They both loved nature, shared bulbs and seeds. These two tireless workers have admired each other, waiting for the next time they will meet by writing letters. Some are funny because they use nicknames like "my poor crustacean" or "my old biped"They almost had an argument when Monet, who was working on the Water Lilies, wanted to stop, discouraged. Clemenceau wrote to Monet that he was ready to give up to their friendship if Monet gave us his job. These paintings, now in the Orangerie Museum, are important because they were offered to the French State by Monet the day after the Armistice of November 11th, 1918, to pay homage to the young men who died in the trenches.In January 1923, Clemenceau urged Monet to undergo an operation on the eyes. It was a small success, Monet could see the colors again, for the last 3 years of his life…It has been reported that the 5th of December 1926, Monet died of lung cancer. When Clemenceau received the phone call telling him that Monet was dying, he jumped into his car, and shouted every minute on his driver "faster!!!". He arrived in Giverny, ran to Monet’s room, located on the second floor of the house, and took his friend in his arms. Monet died few minutes after. On the day of the funeral, a black drapery was placed over the coffin. Clemenceau, full of rage and energy, withdrew it, ran to the kitchen and took one of the yellow curtain, and said "No black for Monet! Black is not a color!"

Mirbeau, one page, 12mo, Paris, n.d., to Claude Monet ('Mon cher ami'), in French. Mirbeau writes in his typically small and neat hand, starting to explain that they are just back in Paris after spending the night in a location they have rented a property, stating in part 'Le bail est signé; nous sommes locataires de ce paradis pendant 6 ans. Je suis enchanté, et je ne me tiens pas de joie à la pensée que je vais quitter ce sale Paris..., mais rien n´est encore certain: car il faut compter avec ces sacrés déménageurs qui ne vont pas au gré de mes désirs...´ (Translation: "The lease is signed; we are tenants of this paradise for 6 years. I am delighted, and I can't hold back the joy of thinking that I am going to leave this dirty Paris..., but nothing is certain yet: because we have to take into account these damn movers who don't work according to my wishes.") Further, and before signing at the base, Mirbeau sends his regards to Madame Hoschédé, `Nos affectueux souvenirs à Mme Hoschédé et bonne poignée de main´ ("Our kind regards to Madame Hoschédé and I shake your hand") With blank integral leaf.

SIGNAC PAUL: (1863-1935) French Neo-Impressionist painter. A very fine A.L.S., `P. Signac´, two pages, large 4to, Paris, 8th February 1928, to some friends, in French. The letter is written to the "Société des Artistes Indépendants" printed stationery, founded in 1884, with head office at 18 rue Mazarine, and as the printed heading bears, with Paul Signac as President of the Society of Independent Artists. Signac commences stating `Chers amis, nous avons été heureux de recevoir vos nouvelles - Vous vous détachez sur du bonheur, semblerait- il, et nous en sommes contents. Certes ce serait une joie d´aller vous voir dans votre nouvelle maison. Il y a un bout de voile qui apparait au dessus de la porte, sur une des photos, qui me tente fort... Enfin, espèrons qu´un jour ou l´autre, on pourra s´offrir des plaisiris auprès de vous´ (Translation: "Dear friends, we were happy to receive your news - You are feeling very happy, seems like, and we are happy with that. Certainly it would be a joy to go to see you in your new home. There is a piece of veil that appears above the door, in one of the photos, which tempts me... Finally, let's hope that one day or another, we will be able to share and enjoy some pleasures with you") Further Signac explains the reasons which keep him so busy, saying `En attendant je suis pris ici par les Indep[endants] et par d´autres devoirs- A ce propos! Je fais partie d´un comité pour les Expositions d´art français à l´étranger, pour y défendre l´art indépendant contre l´art officiel...´ (Translation: "In the meantime I'm busy here with the Indep[endents] and other duties - About that! I am part of a committee for French art exhibitions abroad, to defend independent art against official art...") Further again and before concluding Signac reports on the last ongoing exhibitions and referring to three important ones of three iconic French painters such as Monet who had passed away only a year earlier, Courbet states `Quand venez-vous à Paris? il y a eu une belle exposition de Monet - Il y a encore - mais ça doit toucher à sa fin - une belle exposition de Courbet chez Bonham et de Delacroix chez Rosenberg´ (Translation: "When are you coming to Paris? there was a beautiful exhibition of Monet - There is still - but it must be coming to an end - a beautiful exhibition of Courbet at Bonham and Delacroix at Rosenberg") A letter of very good content. VG to EX Claude Monet (1840-1926) French Impressionist Painter.Gustave Courbet (1819-1877) French Painter. An innovator who rejected academic convention and leaded the French Realist movement.
