HENRI CARTIER-BRESSON ( Chanteloup-en-Brie, France, 1908- Céreste, France, 2004). "Farmer", 1950-1959. Gelatin silver. Later print. "To Madame Bardinet en hommage" and blind copyright credit stamp (in margin). Signed in ink. Provenance: Alona Kagan Gallery NY. Measurements: 16 x 23, 5 cm. In this work of great expressiveness we see how a farmer reaches out his hand to someone who is outside the viewer's plane. The scene seems to represent a traditional image, but the artist goes further, not only because it captures a completely ephemeral moment, usual in the artist's production, but also because of the mystery of a character who is part of the scene, but whose identity is not revealed. Henri Cartier-Bresson was a French artist and humanist photographer considered a master of photography and one of the first users of 35 mm film. He pioneered the genre of street photography and considered photography as capturing a decisive moment. His first major reportage trip took him to the Ivory Coast in 1931.Photographs from his many travels quickly found a forum in magazines and exhibitions. He also gained experience in New York with Paul Strand. In the late summer of 1937, before the battle of Belchite, he traveled to Spain with Herbert Kline, former editor of New Theater magazine, and cameraman Jacques Lemare to shoot a documentary on the American Medical Bureau during the Spanish Civil War. They filmed at Villa Paz, the International Brigades hospital in Saelices, not far from Madrid, and on the coast of Valencia to document the recovery of wounded volunteers in the villas of Benicàssim. They also visited the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in Quinto, near Zaragoza, and shot the film With the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in Spain. From 1937 to 1939, Cartier-Bresson was assistant director on three films by Jean Renoir, including The Rules of the Game. In 1940, he spent nearly three years as a prisoner of war in Germany. After it was erroneously assumed that he had died in the war, the Museum of Modern Art in New York dedicated a major "posthumous" retrospective to Cartier-Bresson in 1947. That same year, together with Robert Capa, David Seymour and George Rodger, he founded the Magnum Photos agency in New York with the aim of preserving the rights to the photographers' work.Cartier-Bresson was the first photographer allowed to exhibit at the Louvre in Paris in 1955. His photographs were collected and published in Images à la sauvette (1952, Images in passing), D'une Chine à l'autre (1968, China yesterday and today) and Moscou (1955, Moscow), among others. Cartier-Bresson stopped taking professional photographs in 1972 and devoted himself intensely to the art of drawing. In 1974 he was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. His work is in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Modern Art, the International Center of Photography, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the J. Paul Getty Museum.

Vereinzelt mit punktuellen, leichten Oberflächenanschmutzungen. Firnis etwas angegilbt. Unter UV keine Retuschen erkennbar. Insgesamt gut. Der Schweizer Maler bereiste nach seinem Abschluss 1828 - 1830 das Sehnsuchtsland vieler Maler: Italien. Dort besuchte er u. a. Neapel, Rom und Sizilien. Die Eindrücke der Natur seiner Reisen waren stets Thema und Motiv seiner Landschaftsarbeiten. Sein Frühwerk zeichnete sich durch niedrige Horizonte und den detaillierten Fokus auf den Himmel und die Wolkenkonstellation aus, dir wir ebenfalls in unserem Gemälde anfinden. Der Pinselduktus war dabei befreit und bewegt und ermöglicht die unmittelbaren Eindrücke Ulrichs aus seiner Reise nach Italien wiederzugeben. Oil on canvas. Signed. Framed in an opulent golden stucco frame. - With partial colour abrasions along the edges and paper tape. Occasional light surface soiling in places. Varnish slightly yellowed. No visible retouching under UV. Good overall. - After graduating in 1828 - 1830, the Swiss painter travelled to the country many artists longed for: Italy. There he visited Naples, Rome and Sicily among other places. The impressions of nature from his travels were always the subject and motif of his landscape works. His early work was characterised by low horizons and a detailed focus on the sky and the constellation of clouds which we also find in our painting. The brushstroke was liberated and animated allowing Ulrich's immediate impressions from his journey to Italy to be captured.
