Henri Lebasque est n\u00e9 le 25 septembre 1865 \u00e0 Champign\u00e9 (Maine-et-Loire). El\u00e8ve de l\u2019\u00e9cole des Beaux-Arts d\u2019Angers, il vient \u00e0 Paris en 1886 ; il devient un court moment \u00e9l\u00e8ve de Bonnat, puis d\u2019Humbert qu\u2019il assistera dans la d\u00e9coration du Panth\u00e9on. Mais il est certain que sa fr\u00e9quentation d\u2019avec Camille Pissarro eut sur lui la plus grande influence.<\/p>\n
En 1893, au Salon des Ind\u00e9pendants de Paris, Lebasque rencontre Luce et Signac : il va suivre ses deux artistes quelques ann\u00e9es dans leur vision pointilliste. De 1900 \u00e0 1906, Lebasque peint r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement sa femme est ses enfants dans sa propri\u00e9t\u00e9 de Lagny. Mais c\u2019est la d\u00e9couverte du Midi de la France qui va transformer sa peinture. Apr\u00e8s plusieurs voyages en Vend\u00e9e, en Bretagne et en Normandie, c\u2019est sur la c\u00f4te d\u2019azur que Lebasque s\u2019installe d\u00e9finitivement en 1924.<\/p>\n
Il fut l\u2019ami de Bonnard, avec qui il partage certains th\u00e8mes. Lebasque a entre autre travaill\u00e9 aux d\u00e9corations du th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es et \u00e0 celles du transatlantique Paris.<\/p>\n
Dans ce tableau, Henri Lebasque a repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 sa famille se reposant \u00e0 l\u2019ombre des grands arbres. Dat\u00e9 1914, il s\u2019agit tr\u00e8s certainement d\u2019une de ses propri\u00e9t\u00e9s sur la c\u00f4te d\u2019azur. Lebasque parvient \u00e0 cr\u00e9er une harmonie entre la repr\u00e9sentation de sa famille et la nature environnante.<\/p>\n

He came to Paris in 1886 and for a short time was a pupil of Bonnat, then of Humbert, whom he helped decorate the Pantheon. But it is certain that his attendance at the old Pissarro, on the outskirts of Paris, had more influence on him than Bonnat’s lessons.<\/em><\/p>\n In 1893 he met Luce and Signac at the Salon des Ind\u00e9pendants in Paris and adopted pointillism for a few years. Living in Lagny in the 1900s, married and father of a family, he painted, from 1900 to 1906, the nearby woods of the Marne. It was with his discovery of the South of France that the most complete transformation of his painting took place. He then continued to stay in other regions: Vend\u00e9e, Brittany, Normandy. After Saint-Tropez and Sainte-Maxime, he finally settled permanently in Le Cannet in 1924.<\/em><\/p>\n Friend and neighbour of Bonnard, he came closer to it by the similarity of themes. He worked on the decorations of the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre des Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es and those of the transatlantic liner Paris. He died in August 1937 in Le Cannet (Alpes-Maritimes).<\/em><\/p>\n In this painting, Henri Lebasque depicted his family resting in the shade of tall slender trees. A brightly lit path is leading out of the picture on the right and directs the gaze onto the painting’s middle ground with smaller, blurred buildings next to shrubs and trees in pastel shades. As is often the case in his paintings, Lebasque creates a harmonious uniformity between the depiction of his family and the surrounding nature.<\/em><\/p>\n Label from Art Salon Abel, Cologne on the reverse.<\/em><\/p>\n Museums:<\/strong><\/em> Bibliography:<\/strong><\/em> Henri Lebasque (1865-1937)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00c9cole Fran\u00e7aise <\/p>\n <\/p>\n French School<\/em>
