Yves Brayer was one of the painters who, between the two world wars, felt the need to become attached to the reality that surrounded them. Brayer counted among his friends, Francis Gruber who was at the origin of the New French Realism of the 1950s, and of which Bernard Buffet would be the shining example. Brayer realised that there are other harmonies than those of architectures created by man, those of pure and wild nature and he became fascinated by the diversity of the Alpilles and their limestone folds, then by the expanses of the Camargue populated by white horses and black bulls. His works can be found in various museums and in many collections both in France and worldwide. He was professor at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière for fifty years, President of the Salon d'Automne for five years and, as a member of the Academy of Fine Arts, curator of the Marmottan Museum in Paris for more than eleven years .

Louis Henri Joseph Aurrens was a French painter, illustrator and caricaturist. Aurrens’ is best known for his paintings later in life of the surrounding landscapes in Marseille, his hometown. He was adept in pointillism, yet made it his own; a kind of controlled abandonment gives a charm to his free, fine and personal interpretation of luminist doctrines. His work is notable for his characteristic use of the colour pink, tinging the scenes with a rosy nostalgia, as we see in this beautiful landscape, Rivière Provençale, depicting a river running next to a bank where Aurrens has used vibrant colours of green and pink.

This small watercolour by Mary Fedden is actually a remake of an earlier work painted by the artist in 1980. In both she depicts her partner, Julian Trevelyan, standing in a street of white stone buildings reaching out toward a disembodied hand. In this iteration however she has chosen to paint two cats rather than the dog in the 1980 version. This is an example of Fedden’s characteristic collaging together of imagery to form her compositions – she would make many sketches and pull from them to do this.

Here French Impressionist artist, Marcel Dyf paints his wife Claudine sitting at a table. Using slight impasto, Dyf has cleverly conveyed the texture of the fabrics, furnishings and the objects on the table. In particular, the vibrant red flower in the foreground highlights the sitter’s rouge lips, bringing the focus to her and adding a romantic, rosy lens to the entire scene. Dyf had met Claudine in the 1950's when she was just 19. There was a big age gap of 36 years but after a many years posing for him, they married when Dyf was 66. This painting is a testament for the passion Dyf felt for his wife. DIMENSIONS: (unframed) 21.3 x 25.5 ins/ 54.1 x 64.8 cm SIGNATURE: Signed 'Dyf' (lower left) MEDIUM: Oil on canvas -
Mary Fedden’s is renowned for her unique perspective and great talent for finding beauty in the everyday. Her first solo exhibition followed the next year at the Mansard Gallery in Heal’s Department Store, where several of her still life flower paintings were displayed. Fedden developed her own style of flower paintings and still lifes, reminiscent of artists such as Matisse and Braque. She worked with bold palettes and simplified shapes, carefully orchestrating her still life compositions to draw out the extraordinary from ordinary objects. In fact, it was her constant progression and development throughout her career that makes her overall body of work so interesting; from her earlier pieces playing with colour, perspective, and patterns to her later work experimenting with light, texture, and crisper, cleaner lines.

Stanley Spencer made portrait drawings of his friends and patrons for much of his life, often head and shoulder views, as if they were seated before him. He enjoyed this activity, he said, because of his 'exquisite appreciation of heads'. This work, Portrait of J. Louis Behrend, is a prime example of his keen attention to detail, as he focuses on his face, with his torso fading into the paper. Also, his gaze directly confronts the viewer, yet is soft. Spencer’s light use of pencil captures his subject’s gentle demeanour. MEDIUM: Pencil on paper DIMENSIONS: (unframed) 8.3 x 7.0 ins/ 21.1 x 17.8 cm -
