CHARLES THOMAS BALE
Charles Thomas Bale was born in Soho, London in 1849, the son of Thomas Bale, a basket maker. His older brother Thomas Charles Bale (1831-1899) was an artist and picture restorer. He lived with his family in St James, Westminster and although little is known about his education, he would have undoubtedly received encouragement and drawing tuition from his brother. Bale started exhibiting in 1866 at the Institute of British Artists, Suffolk Street. He also exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1872, the same year he married Caroline Leathem. Together, they spent their married life in St Pancras. He specialized in still life paintings predominantly of fruit, but he frequently incorporated baskets, a homage to his family’s profession, as well as pottery, glass, and game. Bale’s work was influenced by the English still-life artists George Lance and William Duffield. He was a prolific artist who enjoyed considerable success as a painter.

The waitress.
Oil on canvas, three quarter portrait of a beautiful waitress. Cubist style
Measurements in centimeters: 122 x 48 x 2 cm / Framed: 152 x 78 x 4 cm.
In Inches: 48.03 x 18.9 x 0.79 " Framed: 59.84 x 30.71 x 1.57 "
Original three-quarter close-up of the surprised model at work, with the carefree and seductive air of young and happy waitresses at work.
The painting is harmonious in its rich shades of blue, white, grey and violet, combined with muted, earthy tones and tints of ocher flesh.
The flattened perspectives, the fractured surfaces and the graphic stylizations refer to the cubism of Picasso and Juan Gris. There are echoes of Modigliani in the treatment of his female models and we can detect an homage to Gauguin and Matisse, in his playful and sensual manipulation of color.
