About the Item
The technique and subject matter work well together in this loosely but masterfully rendered World War 1 romantic illustration of a Soldier and a Parisian woman. Even though this work in about 100 years old it has a fresh quality to it. Wilmot Emerton Heitland conveys drama with darks and lights in a moving composition that is dominated by two forground figures while in the background, we see umbrellaed pedestrians walking through and rainy Parisian night. Once you look at the drawing and design of Wilmot Emerton Heitland almost all contemporary artists - even those selling above $100K - look amateurish. The work presents better in person and is quite large. Signed lower left. Titled in pencil lower right. Sheet 27 x 21.5. Unframed
American born illustrator and watercolor artist Wilmot Emerton Heitland, N.A. (1893-1969) was his nephew, some of his paintings are on display at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum and the Philadelphia Museum School of Art.

Winter Evening Fifth Avenue Nocturne - New York at Night
By Ernest Fiene
Located in Miami, FL
Ernest Fiene depicts Fifth Avenue, looking down from 57th Street, with an unobstructed view of the Empire State Building, as an evocation of night. The artist captures a dark, moody blue sky, with light bouncing back from the clouds. This contrasts with the somewhat haunting yellow glow given to pedestrians and street traffic. The absence of newer glass-and-steel architecture provides the painting with the charm of old New York. The people have a slightly zombie-like quality, akin to George Tooker.

A Night in Paris - Mixed Media on Paper by P. Scoppetta - 1911
By Pietro Scoppetta
Located in Roma, IT
A Night in Paris is an original decorative object realized by Pietro Scoppetta in 1911.
Mixed media on paper.
Hand-signed and dated on the lower left corner: Pietro Scoppetta 1911.
A frame is included.
Very good conditions.
Very elegant, beautiful impressionistic work realized in the first years of the XX Century by the important Italian artist Pietro Scoppetta. The work is characterized by a very impressionistic stroke and touch and depicts a scene during a Parisian night. The figures of the woman in the streets are only sketched but we can feel the elegance and the beauty of the Paris during the fin du siècle.
The work has been realized by Pietro Scoppetta (Amalfi, 1863 - Neaples, 1920) an Italian artist. He dedicated himself initially to architectural studies, he abandoned them to form artistically, under the guidance of Giacomo Di Chirico. Resident in Naples, he had the opportunity to live in a climate of strong movements of cultural evolution. Scoppetta decided to leave Italy for abroad, and stayed a long time in London and Paris. In Paris, where he lived between 1897 and 1903, he joined the large group of Neapolitan painters, attracted by the bourgeois suggestions of the Belle Époque, including Lionello Balestrieri...
