Good chickens, Jon. Look for Henry La Thangue's 'A Sussex Farm' online. Fine-feathered friends. I'm a big La Thangue fan. A favorite ptg of mine, too, is George Henry's "Noon", but it's moo cows. I can't look at it enough.just voted, BTW, for President Obama.
This is Jules Bastien-Lepage (1848-84). He deserves a modern biography, but one has yet to appear. Material about him is sketchy, dispersed, or out-of-print. Such sources as there are nearly all agree that he was highly influential to important non-Academics and non-Impressionists.
Merci, Artemesia. Tu as raison. J'aime bcp cette période - Bastien-Lepage à Sargent, Sorolla, Zorn - en passant par des tonnes d'artistes méconnus - Mucha? Stanhope Forbes? etc, etc.
Merci pour l'article sur Bastien-Lepage. Chez lui, il y a ces couleurs subtiles et une surface peinte - texturalle. Mon idée c'est que Michel De Gallard (ma source, donc) était dans cet esprit...

Thanks, Donald. Very interesting, especialy the design of the moo cows painting - do you know this? -
