Galerie Hurtebize
Henri Lebasque (Champigné 1865-1937 Le Cannet) Femme au chapeau fleuri dans un jardin, 1900 Oil on canvas 65 x 54.3 cm Signed lower right Certificate of authenticity issued by Denise Bazetoux Painted in 1900, this remarkable composition reflects Henri Lebasque’s artistic explorations at the turn of the 20th century. Fascinated by the paintings of Renoir and Pissarro, the artist was part of the Post-Impressionist movement. Through his interactions with Maximilien Luce and Paul Signac, he developed a technique with Pointillist elements, particularly evident in this work. In the heart of a lush garden, an elegant young woman, wearing a flowered hat and a light blue dress, is shown from behind, immersed in an intimate scene. The richness of the brushwork, composed of small, juxtaposed touches of color, brings the vegetation to life and seems to animate the figure under the shifting effects of light. The particularly vibrant color palette creates a dialogue between the luminous blues of the dress, the deep greens of the garden, the brilliant yellows of the foliage, and the delicate pinkish hues of the background. This painting brings together several of Lebasque’s favorite themes: the female figure, the intimacy of everyday life, and lush nature. Through its rich color palette and sensitivity to light, it illustrates a pivotal period in his artistic evolution, foreshadowing the luminous style imbued with a gentle zest for life that would make him famous.

Gabrielle Montald (born Canivet) (Brussels, 1867-1942) Decorative bird, 1929 Gouache and ink over gold ground on paper 61.5 x 46 cm (sheet) 64 x 48 cm (framed) Signed and dated lower right ‘G. Montald 29’ Provenance: private collection, Belgium Related works: Among Gabrielle Montald’s most significant autonomous bodies of work, the so-called 'Oiseau décoratif series' occupies a central position. Although the motif appears as early as 1914, the majority of these works were produced between 1925 and the early 1930s. Following her international recognition at the 1925 'Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris', where her imaginative bird drawings were prominently exhibited, the series expanded in both scope and refinement. In 1927, three of the works shown in Paris were acquired by the Belgian government, marking the beginning of an institutional recognition that endures to this day. Rarely appearing on the market, a large part of Gabrielle Montald’s known oeuvre, including her textiles and bookbindings, is now preserved in Belgian museum collections.
