André Vignoles is a painter of still lifes and portraits, but is best known for his representations of the landscape. During the 1940s, Vignoles studied painting in Paris and frequently submitted his works to the Salon d'Automne where he was a member of the Council. Between 1951 and 1959, he exhibited his works in Paris at the Salon au Jeunes Peintres.
Vignoles references some sentimental aspects of the landscape after Poussin, but also adopts an Impressionistic manner of applying paint to the canvas. The bright palette and loose brushwork is reminiscent of landscapes by the French Impressionists. Vignoles paints landscapes of his native France, but also during his travels around Western Europe including Spain, Italy, and Capri.
In this landscape, Vignoles paints the forest landscape of Provence. In the 1890s, Monet painted a series of landscapes in the region at varying times of the day and during different seasons. Like his artistic predecessor, Vignoles experiments with different light effects on the French landscape.

André Vignoles
Andre Vignoles was born in the southwest part of France on August 5, 1920. He followed a course of classic studies but was attracted to drawing at an early age and gave much of his time to it. Vignoles began to paint with a student of Flandria, one of the first Fauves, who studied in the atelier of Gustave Moreau. As he continued his study of painting, Vignoles was attracted by the art of Cezanne, Van Gogh and the Primitives of the 15th century. In 1945, Vignoles married and moved to Nice but shortly went to live at Vallauris, where he worked in ceramics to earn his living, though his spare time was devoted completely to painting. It was in 1945 that Vignoles first met Pierre Bonnard. Bonnard gave the young artist both advice and encouragement, and in particular, urged him to go to Paris. Vignoles moved to Paris in 1946. Two years after he moved to Paris, he began to exhibit at the Salon d'Automne. In 1950, he became a member of the Salon des Indépendants. In 1951, he exhibited in the Salon des Jeunes Oeintres, of whose committee he was later elected a member. In 1952, the French State made its first purchase of one of his paintings, in succeeding years others were purchased both by the French State and the City of Paris.

At the Yacht Club
By Edward Cucuel
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Artist Edward Cucuel and his wife Clara Lotte von Marcard spent their first two decades together in Germany, mostly in a villa on Lake Ammersee in Holzhausen near Munich. It is the works created in this period, mainly outdoor scenes of young women in fashionable attire of the day, that are most collected and appreciated among his works. It’s easy to see why- they capture an elegance and sense of calm and easy leisure- of long days in gardens or by the water.
This is one of those captured moments with a well-dressed woman watching the sailing yacht...
