François GALL (1912-1987) Les deux bouquets au compotier, 1957 Oil on canvas Signed lower left 61 x 46 cm; with frame 82 x 67 cm Bibliography : - François Gall, by André Flament, Editions Vision sur les Arts, Paris, p 29 Among the fresh bursts of country bouquets, often combined with newspapers, pipe and tobacco tin, chess sets, the same fluted glass, and fruit from the garden of grandfather Ferdinand, a cartwright in Martel-en-Quercy. "Tasty, pulpy pieces of paint [...] where the colors seem to harmonize by themselves", as if extracted from the tapestries in the background. François Gall (1912-1987) After the dark, social subjects of the war years, Gàll Ferencz discovered light and freedom in the France he had chosen, a dream of his teenage years spent at the Nagybànya School, the Hungarian Barbizon of Transylvania. After meeting the young Quercy poet Eugénie in 1946, his style and subjects evolved. Impressionist gallery owner Charles Durand-Ruel, whose portrait he painted, exhibited his work from 1949. "...from intimacies to landscapes, Gall extends his visual field with a brio that brings to mind the masters of the early twentieth century. His work is clear and joyful, full of optimism like the man himself. He makes us witness a perpetual feast of color and light". (Jean Bouret, excerpt from the exhibition catalog). A naturalized François Gall, he lovingly painted Parisian life, posing Eugénie, their three children, collectors and friends.
