Arthur Melville, RWS ARSA, Scottish 1855-1904- Street scene, France; pencil and watercolour heightened with white on paper, signed and dated 'A. Melville. / 1878' (lower left), 26.8 x 43.6 cm. Provenance: with Weiner Gallery, New York. Private Collection. Note: Melville studied at the Royal Scottish Academy School under James Campbell Noble (1845-1913) before enrolling at the Académie Julian in Paris, where he was introduced to key figures of the Impressionist movement by his fellow Scot Robert Weir Allan (1851-1942). Melville was heavily influenced by the work of the Impressionists, particularly that of Claude Monet (1840-1926). Indeed, Melville is thought to have been particularly struck by Monet's 'Les Dindons' of 1876, echoes of which can very much be felt in the present composition, most obviously in the spots of white on the figures' headscarves. The present work, executed during Melville's studies in Paris, reveals the artist's embrace of the innovative artistic approaches which he encountered in his early years in the city, and exhibits the loose style with spots of bold colour which would come to characterise Melville's work, and which in turn has been cited as an influence on groups such as the Glasgow Boys. The subject matter of the present work, depicting a bustling, tree-lined Parisian street, renders it particularly interesting, setting it apart from the Middle Eastern street scenes which define much of Melville's oeuvre.
