Paule GOBILLARD (1867-1946) - Lot 83
Paule GOBILLARD (1867-1946) Still life with bronze Degas Oil on canvas Height 65 cm; Width: 54 cm On the reverse, handwritten inscriptions on the stretcher bar: "Gobillard" (medium?) in ballpoint pen and "Nature morte au bronze Degas". After May 1924 The work painted in the rue de Villejust apartment is a rare testimony to the fact that the bronze, executed after a studio work by Edgar Degas, belonged to the collection of Julie and Ernest Rouart. Ernest commissioned it from the Hébrard foundry in Paris on May 15, 1924 (Mexico, New-York, etc. 2003, bronze no. 28 and Paris 2004, no. 19; see introduction). Paule painted him life-size. Gobillard is also known for his portrait of another Degas sculpture, La petite danseuse de Degas, painted in the halls of the Musée du Louvre (oil on canvas, 65 x 55 cm, signed lower left, sale, June 2004). Provenance: Former ROUART-MANET collection. Expert: Élisabeth MARÉCHAUX | CABINET MARÉCHAUX.
