Gerard Diaz Contemporary French Iris Pencil Drawing
By Gérard Diaz
Located in Roma, IT
This very nice drawing is a view of a romantic garden.
In the background, we see a high base topped by a statue of a 19th century figure along with other architectural ruins.
Central to the composition is a leafy tree with a leaning trunk.
The beautiful flowering iris plant in the foreground gave the drawing its title.
The iris has a very long history, as it was known even at the time of the ancient Egyptians and other ancient peoples.
It is well documented that in Europe the iris's rhizome was used as a linen perfume.
It was named for Iris, the Greek messenger of the gods, who according to Greek mythology, had wings of gold shining with dew, which when lit by the sun rays were decked with all the colors of the rainbow.
Also according to this legend, Iris was Juno's favourite goddess because she only bore good news.
Juno decided to reward her by turning her into the iris (the rainbow) which was said to be the link between heaven and earth.

On the Path
Located in London, GB
'On the Path', pastel and ink on art paper, by Suzanne Tourte (circa 1950s). Executed with a lively palette of colour, this is a surprisingly sophisticated modern work of art which belies its rather naive style. Flowered fields, green grassy patches, a curved path and blue skies all figure in this engaging landscape with two figures. Newly framed and glazed in anti-reflective glass, this work is in good overall condition. Signed: 'S X Tourte' in the lower right hand. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying the listing. Upon request, a video may be provided.
About the Artist: Suzanne Tourte (1904-1979) was a French painter, engraver, medalist, fresco artist, lithographer and illustrator. She was also an excellent vocalist. She studied at the school of Beaux-Arts in Reims while continuing her musical studies at the Conservatoire de la Ville. She chose painting as a profession and returned to Paris to continue her studies. She was friends with artists Yves Brayer and Robert Humblot...
