Depicting a couple boarding a ship to New York City, the work brings to life the hustle and bustle of the shipyard while celebrating the majesty of the ocean liner. Loustaunau's skills as an observer are clearly on display, as he captures with a keen eye the movements of the ship's crew, as well as the details of the ship and luggage. In an era when global travel was just becoming accessible to the masses, such works would have resonated with a wide audience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Born in 1846, Louis Auguste Georges Loustaunau studied at the École des Beaux-Arts under the tutelage of the greats Jean-Léon Gérôme and Eugène Barrias. He exhibited his first work at the Paris Salon in 1869; it was a landscape of Brittany that was typical of his output from that period. It wasn't until around 1875 when he abandoned landscapes and country scenes in favor of the genre subjects for which he would become best known. He joined the Société d'Aquarellistes Français in 1891; he died just a few short years later in Versailles in 1898.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Paper: 45\" high x 37\" wide\u003cbr\u003e Frame: 51 1\/2\" high x 54\" wide","brand":"M.S.

He quickly gained critical acclaim when he moved to London the following year, selling his works to important patrons including the famed Tate Gallery in 1884.

In \u003cem\u003eLe bassin d’Argenteuil\u003c\/em\u003e, painted in 1875, Monet depicts the legendary riverside town where Impressionism was born. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Created just one year after the first Impressionist exhibition stunned the Parisian art world, this painting belongs to one of the most important chapters of Monet’s career. In late 1871, the artist settled with his family in Argenteuil, a small town on the Seine just outside Paris. What began as a quiet retreat soon became the cradle of Impressionism itself, attracting Manet, Renoir, Sisley and Caillebotte to its riverbanks. With its sailboats, bridges, reflections and changing skies, Argenteuil offered Monet the perfect theater for modern painting. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003cem\u003eLe bassin d’Argenteuil\u003c\/em\u003e, Monet makes light itself his subject, transforming a quiet harbor into something extraordinary. Sunlight filters through the clouds and glimmers brilliantly across the water, and swirls of vibrant hues bring the surrounding buildings and landscape to life. The scene is serene, yet every brushstroke feels alive, as if Monet has captured a single, fleeting moment in time. It is the quintessential Impressionist masterwork. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Between 1872 and 1875, Monet painted more than 50 views of the river around Argenteuil, returning to the subject again and again as one of his favorites. During these years, he also adopted his floating studio boat, allowing him to paint directly from the water and pursue the reflections, movement and optical effects that became central to his art. Without Argenteuil, the world may never have seen the rest of Monet's celebrated oeuvre. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Widely recognized as icons of Impressionism, most of Monet's Argenteuil scenes already reside in the world’s most prestigious museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Musée d’Orsay, the National Gallery and the Art Institute of Chicago—making this an exceptionally rare treasure by one of history's greatest artists. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Dated 1875 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Canvas: 20” high x 27 1\/2” wide (50.8 x 69.9 cm)\u003cbr\u003e Framed: 29 1\/4” high x 37” wide x 2 3\/4” deep (74.3 x 94 x 7 cm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rau-sfimages.s3.amazonaws.com\/dossier\/Dossier_32-2623.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eView the Dossier\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Provenance:\u003cbr\u003e With Galerie Bernheim-Jeune, Paris, no. 12161 (label verso)\u003cbr\u003e Collection of Oscar Schmitz, Dresden, 1904\u003cbr\u003e Kunsthaus Zürich, on loan from 1931 from the collection of Oscar Schmitz\u003cbr\u003e Kunstmuseum Basel, on loan from 1934 from the collection of Oscar Schmitz\u003cbr\u003e Wildenstein \u0026amp; Co., London, from 1936\u003cbr\u003e Mr. E.W.

In this atmospheric composition, Ziem captures traditional boats at Chioggia, the historic fishing town south of Venice. The masterwork celebrates both the grandeur of the city's architecture and its everyday commerce, while serving as an exceptional study of light and color. Influenced by the ideals of the Barbizon School, Ziem employs brilliant contrasts of light and shadow to animate the composition and evoke the city's luminous atmosphere. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ziem originally planned to become an architect until \"disciplinary\" problems caused him to lose his scholarship to the Académie d'architecture of Dijon in 1841. Upon his dismissal, he decided to embark on a journey to Rome on foot. It was during this time that his hobby of painting became his life's work. He executed hundreds of sketches of the lands he came across, often selling or trading them for food. No other city struck him as did Venice, with its network of waterways and outstanding architecture–he immediately fell in love. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ziem's infatuation with the city would last throughout his career and would become the subject of his most desirable and striking paintings. Several of the artist's renditions of Venice appear in the permanent collections of some of the world's most prestigious museums, including the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e He would return to Venice again in 1845, this time spending three years sketching the city from nearly every possible angle. Ziem completed several paintings upon his return to France and submitted them to the 1849 Paris Salon with great success. He continued to exhibit at the Salon until 1868, then again from 1888 until his death. His work made him one of the most sought-after artists of his day, so much so that in 1864, he was honored to have Queen Victoria herself under his tutelage. In 1857, Ziem was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, rising to the rank of Officer in 1878. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of Ziem’s work currently in preparation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Late 19th\/Early 20th century \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Canvas: 26 1\/4” high x 43 1\/2” wide (66.7 x 110.5 cm)\u003cbr\u003e Frame: 40” high x 56 3\/4” wide x 4 3\/4\" deep (101.6 x 144.2 x 12.1 cm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Provenance:\u003cbr\u003e Private collection, Boston\u003cbr\u003e Private collection, Miami\u003cbr\u003e M.S.

Together with Georges Seurat, he revolutionized painting through a more deliberate and radiant science of color, replacing the spontaneity of Impressionism with a meticulous technique that allowed light and atmosphere to shimmer across the canvas. In \u003cem\u003ePilote de la Meuse\u003c\/em\u003e, painted in 1924, Signac brings this groundbreaking vision to one of his most beloved subjects: the waterways and wind-filled sails that inspired him throughout his life. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Created during Signac’s mature period, this painting reveals an artist at the height of his expressive powers. By the 1920s, his handling of color had become more vibrant, confident and decorative than ever before. Here, his signature mosaic-like brushwork is united with brilliant jewel tones, transforming a quiet river scene into something radiant and alive. The water flickers with movement, the sails seem to catch the air and the entire composition pulses with the sensation of light in motion. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The subject also reflects one of Signac’s greatest personal passions. A devoted sailor, he owned 32 boats over the course of his lifetime, and the rivers, harbors and open waters of France became central to his artistic vision. Rather than simply recording a view of the Meuse, Signac transforms the river into a dazzling symphony of color, rhythm and atmosphere. Every carefully placed stroke contributes to the harmony of the whole, revealing his extraordinary ability to balance structure with sensation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Further distinguished by exceptional provenance, \u003cem\u003ePilote de la Meuse\u003c\/em\u003e remarkably retains rare archival materials relating to its earliest sale, including the original 1924 invoice from Galerie Léon Marseille as well as correspondence between its first owner, Edmond Sussfeld, and Signac himself.

Launched in 1865, \u003cem\u003eMaitland\u003c\/em\u003e belonged to the golden era of the China tea trade, when the fastest clippers competed to bring the new season’s tea to London with unmatched speed and elegance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Dawson presents the vessel from a low, dramatic viewpoint, emphasizing the ship’s towering sail plan and creating a thrilling sense of scale. Cream-colored sails billow in the wind above the ship’s dark hull, while the sea below churns in brilliant passages of turquoise, cobalt and royal blue. The artist’s deft handling of the waves and cloud-flecked sky creates a luminous atmosphere, balancing the ship’s power with the grace and beauty that made the great clippers icons of maritime history. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The \u003cem\u003eMaitland\u003c\/em\u003e was ordered by John Kelso of North Shields and built at William Pile’s yard in Sunderland, launching on December 2, 1865. Registered at 799 tons and measuring 183 feet in length with a 35-foot beam, the vessel was designed for speed and stability, with composite construction and an unusually lofty sail plan that included moonsails above her standing skysails. Though short-lived, \u003cem\u003eMaitland\u003c\/em\u003e participated in the fiercely competitive tea trade, completing notable passages between Britain and China before she was wrecked on a coral reef north of New Caledonia in 1874. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Montague Dawson was uniquely suited to immortalize such a vessel. The grandson of marine painter Henry Dawson and the son of a keen yachtsman, he spent much of his childhood studying ships along Southampton Water. After serving in the Royal Navy during World War I, Dawson witnessed the surrender of the German Grand Fleet, and his illustrations of the historic event were published in \u003cem\u003eThe Sphere\u003c\/em\u003e, the influential British illustrated newspaper. He later continued his association with the publication during World War II, when he was employed as a war artist. Establishing himself as one of Britain’s foremost marine painters, Dawson specialized in historic ships, naval subjects and deep-water sailing vessels. By the 1930s, he was considered among the greatest living marine artists, with patrons including the British Royal Family and American Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and Lyndon B. Johnson. His works are represented in important collections including the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich and the Royal Naval Museum, Portsmouth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Circa 1959 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Canvas: 27 1\/8” high x 47” wide (68.90 x 119.38 cm)\u003cbr\u003e Frame: 34” high x 47 3\/4“ wide x 2\" deep (86.36 x 121.29 x 5.08 cm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Provenance:\u003cbr\u003e Sale, 1959, London, purchased directly from the artist in 1959\u003cbr\u003e Private collection, United States\u003cbr\u003e M.S.

This stunning view of the Seine, \u003cem\u003eLe Lavoir de Billancourt\u003c\/em\u003e, was painted during the artist's golden period and captures the light, atmosphere and immediacy that have made Sisley so prized. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e One of Impressionism's purest landscape painters, Sisley devoted himself almost entirely to working directly before nature. After the upheaval of the Franco-Prussian War and the Siege of Paris, he moved with his family west of the city. There, along the winding Seine valley, he found the landscape that would define his career—villages, river bends, bridges, working towns and open skies, all transformed by season, weather and time of day. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The artist’s devotion to this place is immediately felt in \u003cem\u003eLe Lavoir de Billancourt\u003c\/em\u003e. The river glistens with reflected light, while the soft sky, airy brushwork and delicate tonal harmonies give the landscape a remarkable sense of freshness and calm. At the center of the composition is a washing house, where locals paid a small fee to wash clothes directly in the Seine. In Sisley’s hands, this humble structure is absorbed into the rhythm of river, sky and shore, brilliantly transformed into a scene of pure splendor. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Sisley was born in Paris to affluent English parents, who supported him financially until the age of 31 when his father lost his merchant trading company. His early years of financial comfort allowed Sisley to practice his art without concern. In 1860, he studied with Monet, Renoir and Bazille in the atelier of Marc-Charles Gabriel Gleyre. It was here that he learned the technique of painting \u003cem\u003een plein air\u003c\/em\u003e to better capture the effects of light in nature. His serene views of the Seine, Loing and Île-de-France helped define the visual language of Impressionism, and his works can now be found in major museums worldwide, including the Musée d’Orsay, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery in London, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This work is accompanied by its certificate of authenticity from the Comité Alfred Sisley and will be included in the forthcoming new edition of the catalogue raisonné being prepared by Galerie Brame \u0026amp; Lorenceau. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Painted 1879 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Canvas: 19 1\/4” high x 25 1\/2” wide (62.9 x 76.8 cm)\u003cbr\u003e Framed: 30 1\/4” high x 37” wide x 4” deep (76.8 x 94 x 10.2 cm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Provenance:\u003cbr\u003e Henri Poidatz, Paris\u003cbr\u003e Galerie Georges Petit, Paris, April 27, 1900, lot 79\u003cbr\u003e Georges Petit, acquired at the above sale\u003cbr\u003e Sale: Galerie Georges Petit, Paris, March 4-5, 1921, lot 113\u003cbr\u003e Comte de Lanscay, Paris\u003cbr\u003e Hôtel Drouot, Paris, April 6, 1922, lot 16\u003cbr\u003e Eugène Blot, Paris, acquired at the above sale\u003cbr\u003e Dr. Arthur Charpentier, Paris\u003cbr\u003e Private Collection, Switzerland, acquired c. 1950\u003cbr\u003e Private Collection, by descent from the above\u003cbr\u003e Private Collection, Europe\u003cbr\u003e Private Collection, London \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Literature:\u003cbr\u003e Maximilien Gauthier, \"Hommage à Sisley,\" in L'Art vivant, 1933, no. 170, p. 116 (illustrated)\u003cbr\u003e François Daulte, Alfred Sisley, Catalogue raisonné de l'oeuvre peint, Paris, 1959, no. 315 (illustrated)\u003cbr\u003e Jacques Lassaigne \u0026amp; Sylvie Gache-Patin, Sisley, Paris, 1982, p. 31 (illustrated)\u003cbr\u003e Mary Anne Stevens, ed., Alfred Sisley, London, 1992, p. 154\u003cbr\u003e Sylvie Brame \u0026amp; François Lorenceau, Alfred Sisley: Catalogue Critique des Peintures et des Pastels, Paris, 2021, p. 155, 488 (illustrated) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Exhibited:\u003cbr\u003e Paris, Galerie Georges Petit, Alfred Sisley, 1917, no. 83\u003cbr\u003e Paris, Durand-Ruel, Tableaux de Sisley, 1930, no. 23\u003cbr\u003e Paris, Galerie d'Art Braun, Sisley, 1933, no. 13\u003cbr\u003e Berne, Kunstmuseum, Alfred Sisley, 1958, no. 38\u003cbr\u003e Paris, Musée du Petit-Palais, De Géricault à Matisse, Chefs-d'oeuvre des collections suisses, 1959, no. 126\u003cbr\u003e Schaffhausen, Museum Zu Allerheiligen, Die Welt des Impressionnismus, 1963, no. 125\u003cbr\u003e Minneapolis, Minneapolis Institute of Arts, The Past Rediscovered: French Painting 1800-1900, 1969\u003cbr\u003e Greenwich, CT, The Bruce Museum, Alfred Sisley: Impressionist Master, 21st January - 21st May 2017, illustrated in color in the exhibition catalogue p. 134\u003cbr\u003e Aix-en-Provence, Caumont Centre d'Art, Sisley l'impressioniste, June - October 2017, illustrated in color in the exhibition catalogue p. 134","brand":"M.S.

In \u003cem\u003eLa Seine à Port-Marly–Voiliers\u003c\/em\u003e, Renoir turns his attention almost entirely to the landscape, allowing the sailboats, water and sky to convey the pleasures of a summer afternoon along the river. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Beneath an expansive blue sky, sailboats drift across the Seine, their bright sails catching the light against a low band of trees and buildings. Renoir builds the water from feathery strokes of blue, violet, green and warm ochre, dissolving reflections into the river's surface. A small yellow boat near the center and the white sails at right punctuate the broad horizontal composition, while the artist's loose handling gives the scene an extraordinary sense of light, movement and atmosphere. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Circa 1890 marked an important turning point in Renoir's life and art. He married Aline Charigot that year, while stylistically he was moving away from the more classical manner he had explored during the 1880s under the influence of Ingres and Raphael. Travels in southern France had renewed his interest in the freshness and painterly freedom of landscape, and \u003cem\u003eLa Seine à Port-Marly–Voiliers\u003c\/em\u003e reflects this return to saturated color, thin, feathery brushwork and vibrant light. These qualities, together with the softness and sensuality Renoir admired in French Rococo masters such as Boucher and Fragonard, make this monumental landscape a quintessential Renoir masterpiece. This painting was acquired directly from Renoir by Ambroise Vollard, the legendary Parisian dealer who championed the leading artists of his generation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Circa 1890 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Canvas: 24 1\/4\" high x 30 1\/2\" wide (61.60 x 77.47 cm)\u003cbr\u003e Framed: 35\" high x 41 1\/2\" wide x 2 1\/2\" deep (88.90 x 105.41 x 6.35 cm) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rau-sfimages.s3.amazonaws.com\/dossier\/Dossier_32-3167.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eView the Dossier\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The work is accompanied by a certificate from Renoir scholar François Daulte, dated 19 April 1981, and will be included in the Renoir Digital Catalogue Raisonné currently being prepared by the Wildenstein Plattner Institute. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Provenance:\u003cbr\u003e Ambroise Vollard, Paris, acquired from the artist before 1919\u003cbr\u003e François L.
