Product description
Impressive oil on panel by French-born artist Paul Robert Bazé. It depicts a still life with a bouquet of flowers in the foreground against a dark background. The main flowers are dahlias and camellias, from which the work takes its name. Here, the traditional still-life genre shows its evolution. It displays the characteristic style of the genre to which it belongs, realistic and meticulous, especially perceptible in the way the different qualities of the flowers and leaves are worked. The dark background is also inherited from the still-life genre, with a marked interest in darkness reflected in dark backgrounds. Signed in the lower left corner.
Paul Robert Bazé (1901-1985) was born in Paris, but soon moved to Bayonne and then Bordeaux, where he studied with Paul Quinsac at the École des Beaux-Arts. In 1924, he returned to Paris, thanks to a grant that enabled him to join the studio of Lucien Simon, who became his main teacher. He was repeatedly nominated for the Grand Prix de Rome, winning second prize in 1927 with his work La Mélancolie and first prize the following year with Concert champêtre. In 1929, he moved to Rome, to the Villa Médicis, and spent another season in Naples. In 1935 and 1936, he was a resident at Casa Velázquez in Madrid. At the end of the 1930s, he settled permanently in Bayonne. In 1967, he was appointed curator of the Musée Bonnat in Bayonne. He spent the rest of his life there.
