About the Item

"Woman Reading" by An He is an original impressionistic oil on canvas portrait painting measuring 40x30 in. A modern day brunette woman sitting in a red chair reads a book in the light of a summers day. Chinese-American artist An He, also known as Hans Amis, is known for his magnificent portrait paintings of women. Many times his subject will be in a garden or elegant interior setting. In some of An's earlier oil paintings, the backgrounds were quite impressionistic. In his more recent pieces, he has been leaning toward a more realistic treatment of the background. What has remained constant in An He's artwork throughout the years though, is the beautiful detail and delicate treatment of his subject.

"Sous la Tonnelle", Gerard Valtier, Oil/Canvas, French Impressionist, 29x24 in.
By Gerard Valtier
Located in Dallas, TX
"Sous la Tonnelle" by Gerard Valtier is an original oil on canvas that measures 28x23 inches. This impressionistic painting has an array of bright colors to create a fun and musical image. In a park with orange and pink flowers, a blue and white striped tent is pitched for a party. Many appreciate the energetic work of the brush to describe the foliage or the luminous backgrounds irradiated with numerous vibrant colors. Seething with colors, sparkling, blazing, molten gold: the whole mystery of Gerard Valtier’s painting lies in the working of this colorful living chemistry, where the thickening cover of the glaze catches the reflections of the light, which progressively becomes incandescent. The contrasting blue and yellow, basically naturalistic colors - characteristic of the impressionist palette - create a feeling of bedazzlement which send out their own light, directly imitating the natural effects of light itself. Thus, the property of the color, the interaction of colors as well as their power to create some light, definitely are the basis of Valtier’s work. The artist can paint everything: barges along the quay, the busy crowds, Venice and its carnival, the bride and her procession - his whole painting is under the sign of the feast. Unlike Renoir or Cezanne, Valtier does not hesitate to use black as a true color, not one designed to soften or drain the pure color, as in the shadows. One will also appreciate the energetic work of the brush to describe the foliage or the luminous backgrounds irradiated with numerous vibrant colors. Valtier has had exhibitions throughout the world and has received many awards. He paints from his studio in Arles, France. He is listed in Mayers, Akoun, La Cote des Peinteres, Bordas International, and Financial Art.
